Fire station Number 234, part of the East Command of the 5th largest Fire Service in North America, guards over the West Hill area. Located on Coronation Drive, beside the Robert Borden school, its fire fighters are alert and ready to help, as I can testify from personal experience. When my step father suffered a heart attack while out shoveling snow, the fire fighters from this station were there within minutes to help him relax and to provide the oxygen that saved his life.
