Applications are now being accepted for Wildfire Community Preparedness Day awards. The program is delivered by FireSmart Canada. On the first Saturday in May, citizens are encouraged to take actions that increase their home, neighbourhood and community’s resilience to wildfire. These awards provide $500 in financial assistance to municipalities and community groups looking to implement projects and FireSmart initiatives that reduce the risk of wildfires and promote preparedness. Since 2019, 53 municipalities, fire departments and community groups have received awards. More information about the program and application process can be viewed at the FireSmart Canada website.
