The opposition Fire and Emergency Shadow, Chris Tibbs, is calling for a thorough investigation into the fire at the Driftwood Inn in Deer Lake on Saturday morning. Tibbs is a former firefighter himself and says serious questions have been raised about the safety and emergency plan of that building. These include when was the last inspection? Was there a sprinkler system installed? Did the alarms go off and was there any staff at the Driftwood Inn during that time?” Tibbs has spoken to several parents of a girls’ volleyball team staying at the hotel who have described harrowing stories of waking up to smoke in the hotel with no staff on site, no alarms or fire suppression systems functioning.
