CBRNE Emergency Response in #Toronto

Fire trucks, police and ambulance vehicles lined the Bay Street Boulevard by the RBC Building at Wellington Street West. One of the police SUVs was marked 'CBRNE Response Team' which I had not seen before. The acronym stands for Chemical, Biological, Radioactive, Nuclear and Explosive. A team of fire, police and EMS paramedics form a special joint service Terrorism and Hazardous Materials response unit.
