Johhnnyy Posted July 14, 2023 Report Share Posted July 14, 2023 (edited) I know there is already a post for POV Laws, but that is mostly for American States, and a few Canadian Provinces were included. In this post, I will give you an updated version of Canadian POV Laws. Note that all of the information you'll see here is up to the best of my knowledge. British Columbia: Absolutely nothing. No sirens, no lights (emergency or courtesy) for all ranks, including chiefs. Alberta: Green courtesy lights, no sirens. You don't have to pull over, they can't break normal traffic rules, but it would be nice of you to move aside. This applies to all ranks. Saskatchewan (my Province of residence, yayyy): Red or Red and Blue lights and sirens (Since April 1, 2009). They can break traffic laws, you must get out of the way, and they are emergency vehicles under Saskatchewan Provincial Law. This applies to all ranks. Manitoba: Same as Saskatchewan, but only red lights without sirens for POVs. Ontario: See Alberta Quebec: See Alberta Prince Edward Island: Red courtesy lights, no sirens. You don't have to pull over, they can't break normal traffic rules, but it would be nice of you to move aside. This applies to all ranks. Newfoundland And Labrador: Red lights and sirens for the chief of a volunteer fire department, nothing at all for everyone else (deputy chiefs, assistant chiefs, captains, lieutenants, firefighters, etc.) Pulling over for anyone other than the chief is not mandatory, but it is mandatory to pull over for the red lights and sirens of the chief. Nova Scotia: Red lights and sirens for the chief and deputy chief of a volunteer fire department, nothing at all for everyone else. (captains, lieutenants, firefighters, etc.) Pulling over for the chief and deputy chief is mandatory, but not for anyone else. New Brunswick: See British Columbia. Nunavut: Unknown, POVs considered as emergency vehicles, presumably red lights. Northwest Territories: Unknown (No info available) Yukon: Absolutely nothing. No sirens, no lights (emergency or courtesy) for all ranks, including chiefs.
