Exhausted and emotional, volunteer firefighter Capt. Brett Tetanish spoke to reporters at the command centre set up at the St. Margaret’s Centre for the Upper Tantallon wildfire on Monday morning about battling a historically destructive wildfire.
“It was a good feeling that we were able to save, sorry ... ” said Tetanish, needing a moment as a tear carved a path through the dirt on his face. “ ... To save somebody’s house after so, so much destruction.”
