Listen "An unexpected grant for NS First Responders"
Episode Synopsis
The head of the association representing thousands of Nova Scotia firefighters had no idea what the announcement was for. But Chief Greg Jones says the $10-thousand one-time grant for all volunteer, First Nations and Ground Search and Rescue operations is certainly welcome. This is the second consecutive year the Progressive Conservative Government has handed out the money for First Responder agencies. And once again, it comes without any conditions or strings attached. This conversation starts with Truro-Bible Hill-Millbrook-Salmon River MLA Dave Ritcey who made the announcement on behalf of government. And it concludes with FSANS President Jones on the need for more help and a long-term vision and plan for the service in Nova Scotia.
