PETERS – Persistent public helped press for info on firefighter campfire
Screengrab from video that caused all the controversy.
WHEN A GROUP of firefighters was caught enjoying a campfire near Adams Lake last month, reaction fell into two distinct camps.
The first camp told everyone to leave the poor firefighters alone.
They work long and hard trying to protect our province, and they deserve a little respite before getting back at it.
And after all, who better to know how to extinguish a campfire safely?
The second camp said there are not two sets of rules and there shouldn’t be two sets of consequences.

So what, they had a small campfire to relax for a bit after who knows how many hours on the fireline. Whoever pursued this into a punishable offense needs more to do with their time, imho. Good grief, how about a little gratitude?
