Emergency response expert Jason Pack told Fox News Digital that the incident highlights a different response for Canadian officials than Americans.
“Canada’s emergency response system shares many similarities with other countries, but also shares important differences in how first responders work together,” Pack said. Canada’s airport firefighters added that they are “highly specialized” in aircraft emergency.
“(Canadian) paramedics use a structured triage system to sort and transport patients into trauma centers,” Pack added. “However, unlike the US, where firefighters often double as paramedics, Canada keeps these roles separate. This means that EMS teams need to arrive large numbers to handle medical care.”
