When a person is giving back to their community and providing their expertise on their own time they should be commended not punished.

Disgusting for the Union to try & intimidate/ dictate how someone can spend their spare time. Helping out your community & continuing to save lives; ask yourself this, what if you lived in one of these small towns & full-time firefighters were no longer 'aloud' to be volunteer firefighters, what if you had an incident in your home, what happens when there's no one left to respond to your call?!!

A union cannot dictate what you can or cannot do on your off duty time.

Total support for my brothers and sisters who choose too support and give back to their community. Shame on us for telling them what to do in their own time.

I fully support the two hatters. They should have the ability to choose what they want to do on their own time.

It is time for Ontario, one of two provinces in the entire country, to change this ludicrous law.

Mandy Gould lives for firefighting, lives to help anyone in need. This blows my mind that on her free time she is not "allowed to use her professional skills to save lives. What is this world coming to, beats me.

Without these volunteer FF many rural communities would have no fire service at all and they bring a wealth of knowledge and experience along with them.
