Rescue 1 in Innisfil has a 1050 GPM pump hidden behind the roll up door on the officer's side, carries 600 gallons of water and has twin 20 gallon foam tanks. Crimson built this rescue in 2011 using a spartan Metro Star chassis.

Actually, this is a Fort Garry truck. You can see the FGFT logo above the right side roll-up door.
That being said, Dependable Emergency Vehicles (a local builder and Spartan ERV dealer) is building a tanker for Innisfuil that is due in the next month or two.

Thanks for the correction. I have to attribute my error to the late night posting and an over consumption of those mini halloween chocolate bars. Terriffic sugar buzz!

Finally, after a month of no sun, we have had 2 days straight of sunshine. Unfortunately, we also had lots of snow in between. Clarington, Ontario will be getting this new pumper in their new colour scheme soon.

The town of Gibsons, B.C. is a 40 minute ferry ride and 15 minute drive north of Vancouver. Fellow firepics member CdnFireBuff in Calgary mentioned in an E mail that he was expecting to see a new Pierce engine roll through there in December destined for Gibsons to replace E-3, a 1983 Anderson Engineering built Mack MC with a 1250 GPM pump and 800 gallon water tank.
Canada Eh? - Guest - 12-02-2012
When we visited Gibsons a few years ago, E-1 was a 1998 Superior Ford F 550 4x4 CAFS truck with 300 gallon water and twin 20 gallon foam tanks.

Rescue 1 in the main station at Gibsons is this 2003 ProFire built truck using a Freightliner FL 70 chassis.
Canada Eh? - Guest - 12-02-2012
Anderson supplied the ladder truck for Gibsons as well. Ladder 1-7 ( also lettered for the West Howe Sound Fire Protection District ) is this 1990 Mack MR with a 1250 GPM pump, 500 gallon water tank, and 55' Boardman Apache Tower.
Canada Eh? - Guest - 12-02-2012
At Hall 2 in Gibsons, we found this 2001 Hub built FL 80 with 1050/1200/20/20 specs running as the first out engine.

In the last couple of years, Pierce has made inroads in the supply of apparatus to Metro Vancouver. The City of New Westminster has this 2012 Pierce built engine utilizing a Freightliner M2 chassis with 1050 pump, 586 gallons of water and 40 gallons of A foam.
Canada Eh? - Guest - 12-02-2012
New Westminster runs this 2012 Pierce Velocity 1250/400/50 as engine 3.
Canada Eh? - Guest - 12-02-2012
In 2010, New West also placed this Velocity in service as Tower 1. This truck has a 1750 GPM pump, 450 gallon water tank, 50 gallon foam tank and 100' ladder tower.
Canada Eh? - Guest - 12-02-2012
New West also runs 3 Hub built ALF Eagle engines. These were supplied over a few years, but are almost identical in appearence. E-3 is a 2005 chassis with 1750/500/50 specs.

New West converted this 1988 Anderson built Mack MS rescue into a breathing air supply truck in 2002.
Canada Eh? - Guest - 12-02-2012
The current rescue in New West is this 2001 SVI Freightliner medium rescue.

Our department had used it from May through Oct while our new rescue was being built by Pierce.
