- Deputy Fire Chief Jim Jessop told reporters at city hall that Toronto Fire’s call volume was triple its normal hourly rate, and the service was rescuing people from cars and elevators.
While calls were coming in for flooded homes and apartment buildings, as well as alarms set off by water trickling into building control panels, he said the agency was prioritizing responses to life-threatening situations.
“There’s certainly going to be a lag time on response for non-life threatening calls,” he warned.
This always happens in the DVP every times there are very heavy rains.
I have been moved away for nearly 18 years and no one has fixed this problem.
...they just... walked them out??? Thats a rescue?!
shallow types thinking their ignorance masked in self confidence will win out
This is called rescue? For god sake
😂😂
Maybe if the Mayor renamed the street this wouldn't happen.
😂
Ummm. Did I just watch an entitled woman require taxpayers to fund a fireman to walk to her and talk her into exiting her vehicle? And….maybe just open the door. Your vehicle is totalled now anyways. Sigh.
I’m not taking away from the flooding just the individuals failure.

Only in Canada do people need to be "rescued" from two and a half feet of water 🙄😒. I'm surprised we didn't declare a state of emergency.
It's toronto. They're fragile
