    Government is  distributing $1,000 in one-time emergency financial assistance to households ordered to evacuate their primary residence in Labrador City as a result of the wildfires. While this emergency financial assistance will support evacuated Labrador City residents, a separate assistance program is being developed to assist individuals whose employment has been impacted by the evacuation order. Details on this program will be shared when available. The Red Cross will verify eligibility for assistance.
