A fire protection company called First Unit Fire and Safety has been working in the City of Hamilton on movie shoots and television series. This company is owned and operated by two Toronto I.A.F.F. 3888 Members and employs numerous other professional fire fighters. A letter has been sent to Toronto President Scott Marks asking for assistance to get these individuals to cease and desist from this action which violates the I.A.F.F Constitution and the contracting out provisions of our collective agreement.
