In the coastal towns, wildlands, and prairies of the Canadian West, there lives a special breed of firefighter. These are the men and women who serve and protect the communities in which they live with bravery and devotion. The stress is high and there’s no room for error as each fire department responds to a relentless battery of emergency calls. With remote and unmarked roads, fast flowing rivers, roaming wildlife, and a steady stream of transport trucks and freight trains barreling through their towns, these firefighting teams face life-altering challenges on a daily basis. Returning with a fresh batch of 8 episodes, Season 2 of this Discovery original series sees the return of Chief Albert Bahri and Chief Jamie Coutts from Northern Alberta, as well as two new fire departments from Port Alberni, British Columbia and Swift Current, Saskatchewan.
In Slave Lake, Alberta, a burning oil truck triggers a wildfire, and young Lieutenant Ryan Coutts calls for air support from Alberta Forestry. In Yellowhead County, Chief Bahri recovers the remains of two victims from a wrecked semi with a heavy-duty crane. Chief Jamie Coutts is called up to High Level to battle a wildfire inching its way into the community, while Deputy Chief Alex Pavcek stays behind to hold down the fort.
