We couldn’t ask for somewhere better to take Stella for her “spa days”. They take care of her as if she is their own and Stella absolutely loves going. Only place that gets her more excited is the park! Highly recommend Heather and team for your fur family needs!

I was on a couple of these storms with Connor and may or may not have had a sneak preview of the photos. You’re not gonna want to miss this one. Order now before they get sold out.

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, the time has come. Release day is always my favourite time of the year!

My 2027 Calendars are now up for sale! This years Calendar is my greatest creation yet. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would be able to produce a Calendar quite like this while only having chases in Ontario and Quebec. But 2026's chasing season was something I have never seen before here, and the scenes I saw on the road this year are a stark reminder of that. I went back and forth with myself on whether to include sunset photos this year or do just storm photos on each month, and what I can tell you is.....well, that's a surprise, you'll only be able to know what it looks like when you get one. ;)

Although prices have gone up across the board for shipping, I feel as though raising my price is not fair to all of you who very kindly support me with buying a Calendar each and every year. That said, as usual, Calendars are $30.00 plus a $5 shipping fee, so $35.00 in total. If you are picking them up from me or one of the stores they will be in (more on that in the coming weeks), the shipping cost gets waived and they are just the $30.00.

These Calendars are how I'm able to fund my chasing content on Facebook and YouTube. Without your support, this would not be possible, and for that I'm forever grateful to all of you who purchase these Calendars.

Last year, you all brought another record breaking year with the end number of Calendars purchased last season being 653. This year's goal: 750. I have immense confidence that we will be able to reach that goal with hard work, determination, and a lot of late nights.

So, with all of that said, it's time we get this started. If you're interested in purchasing some 2027 Calendars from me, please leave a comment below or message me directly and either me or my wife Zoé will get back to you. Let's go!

Congratulations to firefighters Greg McQuat and Jeff Dean on their strong performances at the FireFit Northern/Eastern Ontario & Quebec Regionals this summer!

Known as “The Toughest Two Minutes in Sports,” FireFit puts firefighters through a demanding course inspired by the physical challenges they face on the job. Greg and Jeff put their training, strength, and determination to the test while proudly representing Perth Fire Services.
