Saanich firefighters return to vehicle plastered with thank you cards on BC Ferries

Saanich firefighters returning from Williams Lake were greeted with a warm welcome on Tuesday during their 3 p.m. ferry ride on July 25th.

The physically tired crew from Saanich were on their way back to the island from a week-long deployment fighting the wildfires in the interior.

The firefighters returned from the passenger decks to find their truck covered in thank you notes.

The orignal photo was posted to Twitter by Victoria resident Heather Raines. She spotted the hand-drawn signs taped to the window and wanted to share the messages with everyone. The post has been retweed 81 times and liked by 180.

Fire Chief Dan Wood said they are all extremely touched and grateful for the kind words and support
