Firefighters can now obtain special licence The government is issuing speciallicence plate stickers for the personal vehicles of volun- teer and full-timefirefighters across the province, Transpor- tation Minister Gilles Pouliot announced recently. "The special stickers allow the public and enforcement com- munity to identify the personal. vehicles of firefighters," said Pouliot. "We hope all motorists will ensure they don't block or otherwise impede accessibility to these vehicles, which may be needed to respond to an .emer-, gency at any time." ' The front plate stickers replace windshield stickers that have been used by some volunteer firefighters, especially in smaller communities and rural areas. plate stickers The amendment tothe High- way Traffic Act to permit the special plate stickers is the result of recommendations from a committee that included representatives of the As- sociation of Fire Chiefs, enfor- cement agencies and' the ministries of Transportation, Health and Solicitor General and Correctional Services. Localfire chiefs will ad- minister the sticker distribution. The sticker will be removed when a vehicle owner is no longer active as a firefighter. "It's important to keep in mind that while there are no special privileges associated with the sticker, we ask the public to co- operate to ensure firefighters can ° quickly respond to an emergen- cy," said Pouliot.
