It was a devastating fire at the Hollinger Mine in Timmins in 1928 that gave birth to Ontario's mine rescue program. Thirty-nine miners died in the fire, and the commission investigating it later recommended a service to ensure that trained and equipped crews would be available to respond to such emergencies in the future. The mine rescue program was up and running by the next year.

The year 2004 marks the 75th anniversary of the Mine Rescue program in Ontario. WSN has prepared a history book to capture some of the events and individuals that have shaped mine rescue over the years. This 184-page, hard cover book is packed with pictures and first-hand stories.
