firefighters

We’ve been watching them pounding the pavement outside our Osborne studio all week but the total is finally in.

Derek Balcaen, Executive board Member United Firefighters of Winnipeg, Firefighter-Paramedic, tweeted out:

“Ecstatic to announce the Wpg #rooftopcampout for @MD_Canada has raised SEVENTY THOUSAND DOLLARS! Thank you Winnipeg!”

That is a lot of money that will go towards Muscular Dystrophy Canada’s mission to enhance the lives of those affected by neuromuscular disorders.

Nicely done Winnipeg. We’re lucky to have the citizens and firefighters that we do.
