"As a professional firefighter, I have had 4 friends die by su***de in the fire service since 2015. Some of them confided in me about their frustrations in finding appropriate care.

As a peer support member and firefighter, I do not want to see another brother or sister lost in a poorly defined mental healthcare system in our great province.

British Columbia can do better for those who sacrifice their mental health and well-being to protect others."
