WITHOUT YOUR INVOLVEMENT AND CONTRIBUTIONS THE FIREPAC COMMITTEE AND LOCAL 3888 WOULD NOT BE NEARLY AS EFFECTIVE IN ENSURING FIRE FIGHTER ISSUES AND CONCERNS WERE PROPERLY UNDERSTOOD BY THE DECISION MAKERS.

]

In order for Local 3888 to assist these selected candidates, “get elected” money is required. Money donated to Toronto FIREPAC (union dues money is NOT used) by our members may be used in one of two principle ways: The greater portion of the funds raised are used for political action during election campaigns, through direct campaign contributions or by purchasing tickets to various political fund raising events. Our attendance at these functions allows fire fighter representatives to continue building relationships with the various influential decision makers who are in attendance. Secondly, funds are required for the day-to-day operations of the FIREPAC Committee. This covers items such as the incentive packages given to FIREPAC members, operation of the web site, and purchase of materials used at community events in support of fire fighter friendly candidates, along with numerous other miscellaneous expenses. The monetary contribution from the membership is the life blood of the FIREPAC Committee. Without your involvement and contributions, the FIREPAC Committee and Local 3888 would not be nearly as effective in ensuring fire fighter issues and concerns were properly understood by the political decision makers—at all levels of government. By working together, we can, and have made a positive influence, by having access to those in power, making political decisions that affect your career as a professional fire fighter. A prime example of this statement can be referenced to the Fire Ops program. After the success of the Association’s SUMMER 2007 | FIRE WATCH 37
