Noticed that the Ontario Database is around 75% complete.

Your time spent on this is appreciated.

One thing that strikes me odd is that there are no submissions for
Durham or Essex counties. Given their populations, you'd think
there should be something listed.
(This isn't a complaint,just an observation)

Are broader submissions being accepted yet, or just Public Safety for now?

Hold on Eric,remember that these submissions are reviewed by volunteers who no doubt have other things going on in their lives.

We should leave it to their discretion as to what is appropriate for
listing on this site. You can "Private Message" them for an explanation
if you wish to find out your submission's status.

I believe that the goal was to have all Emerg. Serv. for the province
in place first as these are the most frequently requested.

I'm certain that in time, we'll have a 100% accurate and complete
resource at our disposal.

The fellow that does the Ontario submissions (me) has been out of the country since Wednesday. That's why your latest submission has not been worked.

Your first submission never made it to the site. I checked all the submissions and couldn't find anything for Hamilton.

When I get time I will add the submissions but keep in mind we are volunteers. If you feel you can do it faster then by all means, ask Lindsay if you can help out as a database admin.

I just wanted to thank the admins for their work. My submissions have been promptly added with minimal delay. Keep up the good work.

The fire station list was worked by another volunteer admin but the EMS station submission was left until I could get a look at it. There was no title indicating what the list of addresses was about.

Soory Mike.

The Hamilton EMS CACC list indicate all the EMS stations in the new city of Hamilton, not the entire Hamilton CACC coverage area which emcompasses Niagara, Brant, H/Norfolk.
