Our Municipal Emergency Plan has been developed and is updated regularly by our EMO Coordinator and presented to Council. Our EMO Coordinator regularly updates our Municipal Emergency Plan based on amendments to The Emergency Measures Act, which requires that all municipalities in Manitoba meet certain standards.
Emergency Preparedness
Manitoba Emergency Measures Organization
EMO disseminates Public Information on matters relating to emergency preparedness, response and recovery by distributing educational brochures and other awareness materials to individuals, businesses, agencies and institutions. One example is the Family Emergency Handbook
Get Prepared
The "Get Prepared" campaign encourages Canadians to be prepared to cope on their own for at least the first 72 hours of an emergency, enabling first responders to focus on those in urgent need.
Salvation Army
The Salvation Army brings relief to people around the world through its emergency and disaster services. Ready to deploy its resources at very short notice, its disaster units immediately work to reduce physical harm and help victims regain control of their lives.
