WINNIPEG, MAN. — The Canadian Agricultural Safety Association (CASA) is highlighting the donation of $25,000 worth of life-saving grain rescue equipment to several rural Alberta fire departments.
The donation was made by G3 Canada Limited, a Canadian grain company headquartered in Winnipeg, that operates a network of grain elevators and port terminals across Canada, as well as a laker vessel and a fleet of grain hopper railway cars.
Fire departments located near G3’s new grain elevators in the Carmangay, Irricana, Morinville, Stettler County, Wetaskiwin and Vermilion areas will be trained before receiving the rescue equipment. Sturgeon County Emergency Services, near G3 Morinville, received the BeGrainSafe training this August.
This is the second donation of GSI RES-Q-TUBE and a Haul-ALL pencil auger from G3 to eligible fire departments in the prairie region.
