As member of the Vaughan Professional Fire Fighter Association, he was active with Muscular Dystrophy fund raising efforts within the association plus provincially and nationally. Bruce served as the Association’s secretary for several terms of office and was also involved with occupational health and safety matters.
Bruce “The Fire Marshall” had a longstanding career in Canadian radio working at a number of stations including 1050 CHUM, 104.5 CHUM FM as well as being the former imaging voice of TSN. With a desire to help others, Bruce also taught and mentored students at Seneca College that were embarking on
