  We have a bariatric unit where I work as well. We Durham Region EMS are the only urban service in Ontario to not have TAC Medics. We actually have no special teams... :crybaby: We do have a Bariatric unit that we can all access though.

  Most EMS services in Ontario have Tactical medics. I would contact Toronto, York and Ottawa EMS.   I used to work in NS. Great system. Good luck.

  They have purchased 10 Augusta Westland 139's. I don't know much about the type but I am told they are fantastic for Air med work.   Would be interested in the opinions of those in the know.....

  Ontarios Air Ambulance system (ORNGE) is looking for Pilots and Tech's.   I don't work for them directly but certainly work with them often. They are North America's largest civillian air med system, are great to work with and have just purchased several great new birds.   I noticed the job...

  Congrats Jim,   I received the Medal of Bravery in 2007. It's an incredible experience, going to Ottawa, meeting the GG (The new one for you). Something my family and I will alway's remember.   I believe you still get 3 guests. We had dinner at the Marriott restaurant above the hotel the...

I'm Jealous of all the cool costumes. My Daughter is going as a Disney Princess and she insists that I go as a Prince....so I gotta work that one out. Kind of cute though I guess.....

  Definately UBU Ale. Apparently it's Bill Clintons fav too.   www.ubuale.com

  I've spent the weekend trying to affirm my assumptions on this matter before I comment.   I have spoken to several Ontario College faculty members and others who would know, I also submitted my application for semiskilled Med-Tech a couple of years ago.   Here's the scoop: Yes Cambrian and...

I agree with Jollyjacktar, it could happen quickly. My concern would also be who would replace it. With all the different terrorist organizations both within and outside the U.S. combined with the criminal element having an interest it would not be very pretty.. What about Canada? would we be...

That's cool then! Good for him and FDNY, sounds like they are having great success with it.

Well that was interesting ::) Total self promotion, I guess he wants to be a rap star. I wonder if it was FDNY approved. Ive done quite a bit of EMS related media and I know I would not get something like that approved using departmental uniforms and vehicles.

Ahhh sorry. Mall Ninja I get it. There is a certain Hospital security guard that I come across on ocasion who claims to be retired JTF 2..most of us just say yeaahhhh riiiiight. Him and the guy at Subway we deal with who also told us he was an ex JTF 2 Medic, got shot and is now working at...

Call of duty,   Did someone actually say that? or is that from a SNL skit or that Mall Cop movie?

www.newsdurhamregion.com/article/146660 There was a good turnout lastnight. To those from other parts of Canada who cant make it out here is what it looks like. The little girl in the video sitting on her Dad's shoulders holding the Canadian Flag is my daughter and I. She took the initiative...

If it's a PR event for the media and U.S. Government officials to attend then great! Might help with some of the comments by U.S. media and politicians in regards to our efforts in Afghanistan. Sometimes a little reminder to our friends as to what we do together is a good thing,sometimes they...

Ok Ok if were talking abroad then all the weapons I observed in the Dominican during my wedding. I think the best was my reception by the Pool at night with several armed guards with MP5 type weapons "guarding" the pool area from those coming off the beach. Made for some interesting wedding pics.

How does it really work for PCP's out there? Im assuming all the ACP's are full time making a decent wage. So for the PCP's in the large urban areas like Vancouver,Victoria etc. they must all be full time on the cars making a full time wage. They cant be on call. So is it the PCP's in the rural...

I know it's Brutal out there for the PCP's. Whats it like for the ACP's? The time has come to change things, that's incredible to hear. The PCP's where I work in Ontario are at $37.00 an hour. I have had the pleasure to work with the B.C.A.S. ACP teams that have come to the National Paramedic...

While working as a Paramedic in Nova Scotia I was treating an older gentleman for chest pain, a retired fisherman. I looked over his shoulder and out in his yard was a large Naval Mine. He said he found it one day while at sea. He assured me it was safe. The RCMP checked it out anyway.
