A customized facility on McPhillips Street gives firefighters hands-on experience investigating suspicious blazes.

The training facility replicates the experience of going into a real house fire, down to minute details.

United Fire Fighters of Winnipeg president Tom Bilous said the city needs more firefighters to be able to tackle the increase in fires without running the existing members ragged.

Bilous says even with increased staffing, some problems may not be solvable.
