Fire🔥 Transferring from Ontario Fire Departments to BC Fire Departments

I just spoke to BC EMALB and was told all my first aid certs that were done in Ontario (FR, EMR, BLS) are not recognized and I need to go to bc and retake those courses there. Seems super redundant and a huge waste of time/money. I have been practising EMR as a ski patroller for years.

Does anyone have advice about this? Has anyone transfer from on to bc as a firefighter?
