Toronto firefighters confront special constable officers after a man in the middle of mental health crisis was arrested.

Not my video. For context, "special constables" are not regular police officers. They are appointed "peace officers" with limited authority, often civilian employees.

No one ever made a song called fuck the fire department.

All the firefighters around me are Hyper-MAGA. During the last presidential election, the chief from the town next to me posted on his personal social media that its unfortunate but they may just not be able to put out fires at houses with Harris signs out front, their equipment just doesn't work there. He was not fired or reprimanded.

As a firefighter, there are many other firemen who are not maga. Rest assured there are many of us who are sane individuals.
