President’s Update
Welcome, and thank you for visiting the official website of the Maritime Fire Chiefs Association (MFCA).
It is a privilege to serve as President of this proud organization, which represents and supports fire service leaders across Atlantic Canada. Our focus is clear: to champion leadership development, education, and training that strengthens the fire service at every level.
Today’s fire service is evolving rapidly, and strong, adaptive leadership is more important than ever. That’s why we are committed to offering meaningful opportunities for professional growth. Whether you are a senior chief officer or an emerging leader, the MFCA is here to help you build the skills, knowledge, and connections you need to lead with confidence.
We encourage all our members to network, collaborate, and learn from each other. It is through these connections that we grow stronger—as individuals, as departments, and as a united regional fire service community. The power of shared experience, mentorship, and open dialogue cannot be overstated.
A key part of that commitment is our annual Atlantic Fire Leadership Conference, which continues to provide timely, relevant, and forward-thinking content. This event brings together fire service leaders from across the region to explore the latest leadership concepts, tools, and innovations that are shaping the future of our profession—not just here in Atlantic Canada, but beyond.
Whether you’re visiting this site to learn more about our programs, register for an event, or simply connect with fellow members, I encourage you to stay engaged and involved.
Sincerely,
Greg Jones, ECFO
