VICTORIA (CP) - Unionized firefighters in Canada are gearing up for a political fire fight in the next federal election, the president of the International Association of Firefighters said Monday. The firefighters will pledge to financially back federal candidates who will support a U.S.-style fund that pays thousands of dollars to families of firefighters killed on the job, Harold Schaitberger said.
