The Ministry of Natural Resources has wrapped up a training program for some its employees.
MNR Manager Dave Cleavely says the forum was geared towards senior staff from across northwestern Ontario.
"we brought over one hundred crew leaders into Dryden and we're concentrating on leadership and safety," says Cleavely. "These are our front-line supervisors who take our firefighters into the bush every summer so we want to make sure they have the tools and know the techniques that make our people safe."
Cleavely says the course included a look at new safety guidelines that ensure the safety of workers.
