It should be noted that the acquisition of this pumper truck was included in the plan to replace the fleet of vehicles from the Fire Department, whose previous vehicle was more than 20 years old.

This new vehicle, at the cutting edge of technology, will improve our response capacity throughout the territory we serve, in particular through its more powerful pump , ”underlined Norbert Vendette, Director of the Deux-Montagnes / Sainte-Marthe-sur-le-Lac Fire Department.
