On October 6, 2014, firefighters from station 13, group 3, simulated a high-angle rescue operation at Place Ville-Marie (PVM). The building’s senior director and fire prevention technician extended their heartfelt thanks to the fire department.
“Your team displayed exemplary professionalism and generosity toward all the participants; we truly appreciated their contribution during the course of the day, and we owe them a great debt of gratitude. Two accompanied members of our team descended the length of the 46-storey (617 feet) tower at 1 PVM.”
Congratulations to the entire team for contributing to the success of this activity!
