Wildfires
In Canada, emergencies are managed first at the local and then at the provincial or territorial level; if they need help, they can ask the federal government for more resources. The Government of Canada has programs, policies, and initiatives to keep Canadians informed about the wildfire situation and to support provincial and territorial efforts to combat wildfires.
