    Oh wow. So the government pays for your auto and you pay for health? The volunteers down here don't get paid anything. Believe it or not - most of the FD's in the US are volunteer.

    Interesting... Does govt vs private insurance regulations vary from province to province? (Like our states) Or are they pretty much all the same?
    I pity you...

    Mrs Vickies for the win. I have the oldest truck in our five man crew (09). We are treated very well by our boss.

    all auto insurance in Saskatchewan is through SGI (Saskatchewan government insurance), and contrary to popular belief around here I paid less for auto insurance when I lived in Alberta.
