Emergency aids and resources
While emergency management falls under the responsibility of the provinces and territories, it is essential to provide adequate support to affected visitors and ensure clear and timely communication. This ensures Canada remains a safe and accessible destination even during times of climate-related challenges.
The tourism sector plays a key role in this. Sharing best practices and strategies helps prepare for unexpected situations. Travelers can find up-to-date guidelines on forest fires and other climate hazards on Canada's official tourism websites.
Responsibilities of provinces and territories:
- Providing education, training and preparation for communities, regions, SMEs and partners
- Advising emergency services on the needs of visitors
Supporting communication towards visitors and the tourism sector on site
Participate in recovery communication and marketing after an emergency
