It was a successful emergency training exercise in Stratford last Thursday bringing together municipal employees, emergency services and partners for the mock disaster.
This exercise simulated a tornado strike which damaged the area near the River Gardens Retirement Residence on Romeo Street with multiple injuries, damaged infrastructure, flipped vehicles, power outages and downed trees.
Firefighters, police, paramedics, festival hydro and city employees all responded to the training as they would in an actual disaster.
