P.A. Fire Department responded to record number of calls in 2023
Last year was a record-breaking one for the Prince Albert Fire Department (PAFD).
Crews ended up responding to 1,827 calls which comes out to just over five a day. It beat the previous record of 1,700 calls set in 2022.
Deputy Fire Chief Alex Paul told paNOW it’s not uncommon for both of their firetrucks to be out at the same time.
“We’re being dispatched almost simultaneously or within a minute or two… 20 years ago, it was very, very rare to see,” he said.
