I can tell you that when the CFA went from local brigades/groups and staff stations taking calls that there was and in some areas still are people who dislike the CAD system.But all in all it works well,paid staff now don't have to sit at the station and wait for the phone call instead they are out doing what firefighters do best and that is community education and inspections as well as on station drills. The volunteers no longer have to make sure that someone will answer the phone or that the radio base is manned,but above all it makes life easy once things are are done correctly.
I am not saying MFS or CFS do a bad job but to have one call and dispatch center will be great to the comunity that we serve....
