Preparing for a Disaster
We are currently preparing a civil security plan so that we can react quickly and effectively in the event of a major disaster.
You can also prepare!
In the meantime, residents can also prepare by assembling an EMERGENCY KIT in anticipation of an emergency that could compromise the safety of our families, friends and neighbours.
Get the list of items to put in your emergency kit on the Canadian Red Cross website.
Types of Disasters:
• Tornado
• Earthquake
• Severe Weather (Ice Storm, Blizzard, Heavy Rain)
• Landslide
• Power Outage
• Forest Fires
• Water Contamination
All information on natural disasters is available at www.canada.ca.
