The Montreal Auxiliary Firemen -Pompiers Auxiliaires De Montreal is a volunteer non-profit organization founded in 1944. They are more commonly known as the Buffalos, the animal which appears on our crest and emblem. The Buffalos perform three basic functions operating out of Montreal Fire Station 30.
The primary function that the Buffalos provide for the Service de Securite Incendies de Montreal ("SIM") is that of firefighter rehab and medical support. We operate canteen unit 1330 and support vehicle 1230. We are automatically dispatched to all second alarm (10-12) and greater incidents. During periods of extreme heat (+30C) and extreme cold (-30C) we are dispatched to all working incidents (10-07). Members are called by text message and are on call 24/7.
