EXHIBIT 99.1

FirstService Announces Normal Course Issuer Bid

TORONTO, June 5, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- FirstService Corporation (Nasdaq:FSRV) (TSX:FSV) (TSX:FSV.PR.U) ("FirstService") announced today that the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX") has accepted a notice filed by FirstService of its intention to make a normal course issuer bid (the "NCIB") with respect to its outstanding subordinate voting shares (the "Subordinate Voting Shares") and 7% cumulative preference shares, series 1 (the "Preferred Shares"). A similar notice has also been filed with the Ontario Securities Commission.

The notices provide that FirstService may, during the 12 month period commencing June 7, 2008 and ending June 6, 2009, purchase through the facilities of the TSX or Nasdaq National Market ("Nasdaq") up to 2,570,000 Subordinate Voting Shares and 475,000 Preferred Shares in total, being approximately 10% of the "public float" of each class of such shares, respectively. Purchases of Subordinate Voting Shares through Nasdaq will be made in the normal course and will not, during the 12 month period ending June 6, 2009 exceed, in the aggregate, 5% of the outstanding Subordinate Voting Shares as at the commencement of the NCIB. The price which FirstService will pay for any such shares will be the market price at the time of acquisition. The actual number of Subordinate Voting Shares and/or Preferred Shares which may be purchased pursuant to the NCIB and the timing of any such purchases will be determined by senior management of FirstService. Daily purchases under the NCIB will be limited to 20,760 Subordinate Voting Shares and 2,833 Preferred Shares, respectively, other than block purchase exceptions. All shares purchased by FirstService under the NCIB will be cancelled.

As of June 4, 2008, there were 28,828,893 Subordinate Voting Shares, 1,325,694 multiple voting shares and 5,979,074 Preferred Shares of FirstService outstanding.

FirstService believes that the Subordinate Voting Shares and the Preferred Shares may from time to time trade in a price range that does not adequately reflect the value of such shares in relation to the business of FirstService and its future business prospects. As a result, depending upon future price movements and other factors, FirstService believes that the Subordinate Voting Shares and Preferred Shares may represent an attractive investment to FirstService. Furthermore, purchases of Subordinate Voting Shares are expected to benefit all persons who continue to hold Subordinate Voting Shares by increasing their equity interest in FirstService.

During the preceding twelve month period ended June 4, 2008, FirstService purchased for cancellation an aggregate of 283,700 Subordinate Voting Shares at an average price of C$19.34 per share and nil Preferred Shares through the facilities of the TSX and Nasdaq.
