Showing off the moustaches

Osoyoos Firefighters showed off their facial hair as they completed their Movember campaign on Saturday, raising funds for men's health.

"From all of us at Osoyoos Fire, we wanted to thank the community for supporting us this month with Movember," reads an Osoyoos Fire Rescue Facebook post.

"One of the projects being supported is the First Responder Resiliency Program (FRRP), developed by Canadian wellbeing organization Blueprint," continues the OFR post.

"This upstream mental health support program was built for first responders, by first responders,"
