On Scene

Feb. 9, 2010

Fire Fighting in Canada's western correspondent Paul Dixon begins his Olympics blog tomorrow - Wednesday, Feb. 10 - in advance of the 2010 Olympics, opening Friday in Vancouver.

Dixon will be our eyes and ears on the ground in and around Vancouver, reporting details of emergency responses and tracking the goings on of the region's first responders.

With hundreds of highway coaches set to rumble up and down the winding Sea to Sky Highway for the duration of the Games and fire departments and BC Ambulance Service personnel on alert, Vancouver is well prepared for its time in the spotlight.

We'll keep you posted on the day-to-day goings on that affect our readers - firefighters, EMS workers and other emergency personnel.

Dixon will file nightly reports from downtown Vancouver, or wherever the action takes him.
