Looking for pics

I am looking for pics of major fires in Verdun Quebec. I grew up in Verdun and I am still in Verdun. As a child, I remember sooo many fires here on Wellington and the avenues. There was even beleived to be a pyroman here too. I am looking for pics of these fires, even if they are recent pics. The ones that I am seeking the most is the pics of fires in residential buildings with commercial attached to it or underneath it. Thank you very much!!!

  4. the picture on the cover of this magazine ,.is from Verdun apparently ( so say the write up under it)  Looks like there is a Fire Magazine,.so contact these folks may produce some photo's for you
    On This Month's Cover:
    An early evening fire in Verdun, Quebec occurred in October, 1991. The fire, which started in a paint store, spread to three buildings. Eight mutual aid departments were called.   http://www.firebuff.org/pamparade.htm  Stella search through this link,........and you will most likely find photographs from various fires around Verdun(but more so Montreal)                Good Luck                                                           HF&RV [an error occurred while processing this
