global fire



At the recent IAFF convention in toronto, Delegates voted to approve a global alliance with other fire unions around the world. These unions include United Firefighters Union of Australia, the Fire Brigades Union of the United Kingdom, IAFF, and of course New Zealand Professional Firefighters Union. "We are more then 100% supportive of formalizing international alliances," said Derek Best, national secretary of the NZPFU. This alliance is crucial to continue to improve working conditions and staffing levels of our Depts. No matter what country they protect, firefighters share a common bond, and now we have the alliance to help us work toward a common goal.

tidbit Firefighters dont go to heavon! They go to hell and regroup!
