Wishing all our colleagues and allied workers across the province a very Happy Holidays.

Our deepest condolences to Cheryl’s family, friends and colleagues at Niagara EMS. If anyone can donate to help our sister’s family as they navigate this tragic loss, it would be so appreciated. @Cupe911 gofundme.com/f/dsm4x4-chery…
