- Despite a nearly day-long trip from South Africa, approximately 200 firefighters broke out into song and dance as they arrived at Edmonton International Airport on Thursday to help fight the ongoing wildfires burning across Alberta.
It's a tradition the Working on Fire crews repeat each morning before fighting fires across the world.
The government-funded organization is focused primarily on firefighting management and have made several trips to the Canadian province in the last decade, including during the harrowing Fort McMurray wildfire crisis in 2016.

What happened to all the white firefighters from SA?
Did they get murdered like the farmers?

Truely😲
All of them? Wow. That's amazing... You wouldn't happen to have a link to that story by any chance?
this is a small militant group they brought in to bolster the foreign forces staging in the areas being burned by the wild fires.............we are being invaded and nobody cares lol
Because they are retired for a reason? Possibly age my guess and training could be outdated also ? You taking anti immigrant way too far. Yes, international students are under housed and we are having a housing crisis. I can see that but bringing firefighters professional. Guess who works on Ontario farms? Jamaican season workers that have temporary contract. How come you are not against that ? Most black African don't like Canada weather.. is too cold and you don't see that many blacks in Canada
What a great sound from the brave firefighters of South Africa, so glad to see them coming to help to save our forests and small towns that might be threatened by the fires.

If this was also a rain dance that would be fantastic!
Best Comment ;-)
As per our own firefighters, they (the hired help) have zero experience with these types of fires and most have never even seen these types of trees. An army of our own retired firefighters with decades of experience were denied these roles to pay for this, and that is probably why the fire continue to burn.
It's amazing seeing how horrible our "news" media is every day, hey? None of these people commenting will never know that truth, and they'll label anyone who says it a conspiracy theorist. I watched the interview with that one firefighter the other day.

South Africa's 0 experience equates to this being the 5th coming to your country and this being the 2nd team deployed this month to assist with your wild fires? Don't you dare disrespect us just because your country is disrespecting your retired firefighters. South Africa is not the one. You have a problem, petition Trudeau and leave us out of your political squabbles.
@@Say_Jay246 I don't believe you're South African.
@@user-gu8bc2tw1w I'm pretty sure they're here to stay. They would have used all the firefighters that volunteered unless this was some scheme, and all Turdo seems to do is scheme against the country these days.
Wow, nice.
Beautiful
Thank you guys for coming to Canada, bringing your spirit, beautiful song and dance.
Canada thanks you for your help. You are heroes to us, and we thank your families at the same time. Be safe and be well.
Very well said.
@@DP-hk6ox Thank you, that's very kind
That's what I'm talking about...😂
Love it!
They are probably thankful to be out of South Africa.
lol. they're celebrating the lights stay on in Canada.
Yes. Because every South African has dreamt of leaving South Africa for Canada.
@@Say_Jay246 he didn't say they dreamed of being in Canada but thankful to be out of South Africa. Rolling blackouts for 205 days in 2022 is a good reason to want to leave, because it looks like it will get worse.
@7QHook You're right. Let amend my comment. We all need a breather from our own country at this point. Any country will do. Even Canada at this point. You know what they say about beggars
@@Say_Jay246 ANC communists are successfully destroying South Africa is how it looks from here. And it is on course to get much worse. That's how it looks from afar. Is it how things are there?
❤❤❤
Warning...this well renumerated deed will boost their ego's to the extent that may make Canadians feel forever indebted in expectations given any future opportunity.
❤
Wow! Prowd of our guys!😊
This was earlier in the week. Why is it just being posted now. Global's working in the past.
Propaganda always tries to evade common sense.
I guess they're out of pride stories for now
Do they actually work when there?
Coming to help or immigrate ?
Making their way to the ring, from South Africa, theeee Fiiiiiire Fight-errrs.
South Africa will come to Canada's aide lickty split, but will hardly lift a finger to support Ukraine. Their recent peace initiative is but a joke and would most likely favor Putin.
Probably because Putin actually doesn't moral grande stand to racially obsessed leftists. By you know helping the farmers who face brutal realities of murder just for their skin colour.
Yahuah Baruch you all
Why don't we have fire fighters..?
well, appreciate the help, but why is Canada doing this? we're supposed to be rich and sophisticated nation, and ought to have firefighters and equipment already to easily handle these fires. How much of a distraction will it be to get these men up to speed on the particulars in Canada. In fact, isn't fighting forest fires about air vehicles dropping water on the fire? so why did govt spend time on manufacturing a spectacle of getting fire fighters from the other side of the planet? or are we in fact a third world nation now and actually need this help?

It's called having a wimpy descuting prime minister
Its all about being able to create fire breaks and keeping the fires from spreading to other areas they can do this work to.
This is how it's been done for years. Our people will go to volunteer where the fires are. Sometimes the fires are so bad local firefighters are overwhelmed. ❤
@@marilynlickers wow he really does live rent free in your head. If Harper was still in power you wouldn't have public firefighters. Just a big fat tax cut while your house burns down. And thoughts and prayers. Actually just thoughts and prayers now that I think about it.
I’ll take this any day over hate and country music.
Good job 👍🏾
Hope they all have exit visas.
How much did we pay for this? We could have gotten much more competent aid from a far less corruot and racist country.
We prefer slave labour in the free world. Ca Na Da!
Yeah, haha Cananda in return, please give us electricity:) if we have fires they never show up
Approximately 200 ? Just a willy nilly guess , its not like anyone is counting who comes into Canada anymore
Get to work already
That is clearly one particular tribe. It is crazy what constitutes government for everyone else in the world!
Thanks for the help, though. We cant deal with anything by ourselves.

Thank you from all of us love the joy
Wow❤ Beautiful!

The last time they came here, they did the same thing.
Then they complained about the pay rate and went home.

You'd think they're going there to pay LOL. Amazing, welcome and thank you❤🎉
In our toxic world, people are creating many topic and issues with their own likeness to gain attention, popularity and project but not to put attention of crucial issues happening in our society and execute effective control and solutions.
It is always important to have awareness on crucial matter that destroys people’s lives, DRUG ADDICTION AND HOMELESSNESS.
I suggest to help others first before helping ourself, not to gain glory, praise, popularity nor to be idolized by creating organizations or foundation, focus on high priority issues like homelessness and drug addiction.
Why until now drug addiction, homelessness, crime, violence and hate still reigns in our society?
Because no one dare to execute effective solutions properly and to fight against Evil doings.
There are many people who live in our world who aren’t acting like a human, immigrants are leaving, even aliens are leaving and only politicians, Zombies, drug addicts, violence, crime, hate, cruelty, war and homeless reigns.
Where are the law and orders? Were is the morality? Where is the Democracy? Where is the power of the goodness and where is your faith in our Lord God?
❤
Im proud of you guys, keep up the good work, we pray 4 you
Nice
Going to battle
We helped everybody in this world from the beginning of time, in return they give us hate and disrespect.
Well I appreciate and admire you. 🤜🤛
Beautiful display
That is so awesome..❤❤
why's tu.rd starting all the fires........
Send them back! Their rain dance brought us a crappy, wet June thus far!
AAAAAYYYYYYYYY THANK YOU FROM ALL OF ALBERTA
Sweet! No Jerusalema dance off!
Welcome lions of Africa
