This is actually fantastic news on the diversity front. I am really surprised, and the fact that the Union is led by Chris Ross, another Bloke is something that hasn’t been seen here in 75 years. Liebmann said one of his big jobs will be to address the lack of diversity in the Fire service.
“Just one per cent of Montreal’s 2,400 firefighters belong to visible minorities, and only 1.2 per cent are women,according to the city. That in a metropolis where six residents out of 10 are first- or second-generation immigrants, and a third belong to visible minorities.”
Have at it.
