I love how the Prince of Wales really likes to support all the emergency services. He has always been a very caring guy and he is always respectful. ❤️ 🙏👑
Plus he was rescue pilot so he gets it.
Thank you to all these firefighters for doing this dangerous and exhausting work. 🥰🇨🇦

Well done, HRH William, POWales..for giving your time to speak to the Canadian firefighters. For supporting them and for encouragement….❤
he gave up six minutes. He gets over 20 million a year of this.

What did you do for the firefighters?
Probably nothing. 😈
@@NoKingCharlieDon't know where you get your mythical 'he gets over £20million per year' comes from - but it's BS.
@@jillosler9353
Of course it's BS, and he knows it. 😊
Thank you PW for supporting and showcasing our hardworking Canadian Fire Fighters. We are so grateful for all your HARDWORK ♥️🇨🇦
Thank you to all the fire fighters who worked and are working so hard to protect our country and our forests! Sending love and thoughts from a fellow B.C. citizen. 🇨🇦
Love to you from Nova Scotia ❤
Love from Ontario.❤
Thank you firefighters for all your sacrifices
He’s doing such an amazing job and his empathy, compassion, and understanding is truly inspiring.
His willingness to listen and let people tell their stories is so important.
God bless these frontline workers from Canada 🇨🇦
🏴🇺🇸🇬🇧💐
Thank you to all the first responders. Thank you to Prince William and The Royal Foundation for bringing awareness to these disasters and those who are on the frontlines.
The Prince of Wales’s understanding of, and respect for the emergency services is clear.
All that is clear from one six minute call? No wonder he does so little.
@@NoKingCharlie
Quit with your nonsense. What are you doing today to support the firefighters? 😈
@@NoKingCharlieYears as a Search and Rescue pilot followed by piloting medics via Air Ambulance (unpaid) means he KNOWS what it takes personally! Take your republican thoughts elsewhere if you are too dumb to recognise this - and change your insulting avatar to 'Ilovetowhinge' !!

HUSH UP TROLL 😈
Thank you, to HRH The Prince of Wales and the firefighters, for all that you do. And thank you, HRH, for all that you are doing to combat climate change! You are highlighting this global issue. We need to hear much more about it as vested interests try to ignore it.
God bless prince & princess the wale amen
Thank you Prince William for making the time to speak with our firefighters. ❤️🇨🇦❤️

Grow up!

@@NoKingCharlie
Not on the Monarchy.
NEXT?
@@Ker-mk3bf can you explain why or do we have to wait until your teacher gets to that bit?
Your Royal Highness, you and your lovely wife, the Princess of Wales, are so kind. This support makes all the difference, thank you! 🥰
All the difference or no difference whatsoever?
@@NoKingCharlie
Quit with your nonsense.
Much LOVE, RESPECT and BLESSINGS from SOUTH AFRICA. 🌍🦁🦓🦏😍🙏
In the US midwest - Chicago -, we had many summer days of smoke, smog and unhealthy breathing days due to the Canadian wildfires. One day we had the title of being the most unhealthy polluted city in the world. God bless those at the front line. We are thankful for their work.
Thank you to all the fire fighters for their continued sacrifice and hard work. ❤️❤️❤️. Prince William you are a special and caring individual. Recognition of these fire fighters is evidence of your love and empathy. We love you and Princess Catherine as well. Thank you to all. Stay safe.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻.
We pray the fire be contained and land preserved. Thank you Prince of Wales in solidarity call to Canadian citizens❤🙏
❤🙏
The support for the commonwealth with so obvious a climate change issue and the devastation caused by it is wonderful. I'm sure the firefighters and staff appreciate the call from His Royal Highness.
A lot of those fires were purposely started as was stated at the time. The Greek fires were also deliberately started nothing to do with the supposed Climate Crisis, that the likes of the WEF and Just Stop Oil are spouting about. Listen to the real experts.
This was a six minute call. Not in a busy day. Not in a busy week. He took the rest of the week off.
@@NoKingCharlie
You have no idea of their schedule.
Quit with your nonsense.
@@Ker-mk3bf they publish their schedule exactly so we know how busy they are.
@@NoKingCharlie
You couldn't keep up with their schedule. 😅
Wonderful first responders ❤️
All of you guys are real heroes bless you all ❤️ it was really nice to watch.ty for being real life heroes. There are not much left in this world 😢
Thank you for your Service. 😘
Thank You Prince William for highlighting the Canadian firefighters & all their hard work.
The first responders during these events do a phenomenal job under such difficult circumstances. Here in British Columbia the summers of the last few years have been horrific - at the end when they've been noted as being the worst on record you think "Hopefully next year will be better", and then records get shattered. During the heat dome two years ago when it hit 50 C here, and the entire town of Lytton was lost to fire a person would think it couldn't be worse than that. Sadly, this year several firefighters lost their lives during the season, including the four killed last month in a traffic accident returning home from service. British Columbia (and other areas of Canada) have been tremendously fortunate to receive assistance from teams of firefighters from other parts of the world, who travel here and step in to help relieve the fatigued first responders that are simply overwhelmed by what they face. All of them are heroes.
Thank you for letting us hear their stories. ❤
Thank you all 💕🇨🇦
THANK YOU for your care & concern Prince William. High respect from Alberta 🇨🇦♥️🇨🇦
As a former municipal politician, I had the privilege of working with people who run to an emergency while the rest of us run away. Often politicians paint firefighters as part-time workers because they live at the fire station while on duty. I realize that firefighters who sleep during this time are total "slackers" and that they do eat their meals. Believe me, I have heard more than one on more than one occasion agreeing with a ratepayer that they are a "freeloaders". I shake my head because those kinds of comments are said by ignorance. I can educate the ratepayer but the politician is beyond hope, mostly. Thank you for all of the emergency people who put their lives on the lines to keep us safe.
This shows real interest in people, their hard jobs and sacrificesnas well as shiningn a light on them.
Thank you.
I appreciate all their effort and self sacrificing spirit!…
The Canadian fires seem to get worse and worse every year. We need more initiatives like the earthshot prize to create real change and not mask it with taxes.
Thank you, Your Royal Highness, for caring so much for us in Emergeny Services. Your kindness means the world to all of us - even here in America. Bless you, Sir.
I am from South Africa and our fire fighters where there as well! So worrying!! Thank you HRH Prince William for bringing awareness to this! ♥
Thank you to your brave fire fighters too ❤
To our Canadian (and those who travelled here to help) we see you and we APPRECIATE you. ♥🙏
Thank you, Your Highness, for honouring our brave fire fighters. I am in Nova Scotia , the fires here were terrifying . They were so big, the ahes fell like grey snowflakes from the sky. Then we barely recovered from the fires when we were hit with the huge storm that once again shut our province down but with water and floods instead of flames.
Thank you, Your Royal Highness. Your commitment to the Commonwealth and the planet and all those on it is greatly appreciated. We live in the south (Cornwall, Ontario) and only had a number of days during those many dry weeks in Northern Quebec, but ash on the roof added ended up in our water barrel and our garden didn’t do well. We continue to conserve and prey next year will be better. Thank you for continuing this discussion.
Thankyou to all the firefighters and thankyou to Prince William for shining a light on that matters that count
As a Canadian who does not live in a fire zone, I am grateful to His Royal Highness for taking the time to listen to some of those who do. The smoke I experienced at a distance was nothing compared to what residents in those areas and courageous firefighters dealt with over extended periods of time. From the prince's lips to God's ears that this has been a "one off"!
he took 6 minutes of his time. he took the rest of the week off.

Quit with your nonsense.

All my best wishes for you and England
Really nice for William to take an interest in the firefighters.
Thank you to our firefighters! Your strength keeps our country safe! Thank you your Highness for caring XOXO
It's great to see His Royal Highness Prince William speaking and taking an interest in the Canadian Firefighters and what they had to say .
Well done to all 🙌👏👏
Thank you William. 🎉
Well done to you all, what a crazy world we live in ty for your service ✨️ ✨️✨️✨️✨️🤗💖
The Prince of Wales is a top bloke.
CLASS Prince William allowed the firefighters to tell their stories and express their feelings, fears, and thoughts. Prince William did not make it about him. It was how are you doing, what can we do for you, and thank you for your service.
Kelly, i hope you have ongoing support I can understand the impact of losing someone and hear it still is fresh in your voice, you will never forget Devon, but with time it will be less difficult. To the others representing your areas, well done. Respect and lets hope for a better year next year. From Tasmania Australia.
Thank you Prince William for honoring these heroic men & women. I love in the state of NJ and we we’re affected by the smoke from these horrible fires. Blessing to all affected. From a grandmother of 8 grandchildren I too salute you!
Thank you, Prince William and all the firefighters 🇨🇦🍁🇨🇦🍁🇨🇦
Thank you fire fighters AND their families for all you do and dId this past summer. You risk your lives and your health to protect communities and the families who live in those communities. We really are so grateful to you all. Thank you also to your Royal Highness for checking in and all you do for the lives and communities affected by climate change. Hand in hand hopefully we can make a difference. ❤
All are amazing people. Full respect
All I can think of is the wildlife out there dying in the agony of burns.. so heartbreaking..
🇨🇦❤️ thank you for caring

GO AWAY SCAMMER 🚨

Of course William still cares about the wild fires that ravaged Canada this year. Thank you for reminding us all about this ongoing concern as they may very well find these fires more common.
Thank you.
