Back in April 2011 a fire in a building across the street caused the power to go out. This led to the authorities discovering that the Marina Center's emergency backup system did not work. Two years later, the problem continues.
If there would have been a fire in the building during the outage (which lasted for almost an hour), nobody would have known because no alarm system would have worked. Furthermore, had an evacuation been necessary, it would have been impossible since the building was totally dark! And if the fire department would have needed to use the water, it would not have worked because the pressure went down!
It seems clear that NOTHING has been done to rectify the problem (in two years), thus putting the lives of the tenants in danger! Incompetence or criminal negligence? You decide. Would you want to live here?
If you are as fed up as I am, call Mister Francis Fleury at 514-280-6740, he is the fire inspector responsible for the building at the Montreal Fire Department.
