Emergency Preparedness (EP) Week May 4- 10, 2025
Members of the Huntsville Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) would like to notify our citizens that from May 4- 10, 2025 is Emergency Preparedness (EP) Week. This week-long event is a national effort led by Public Safety Canada and other organizations, aiming to educate communities about emergency preparedness.
This year, Ontario's theme is "Plan for the Season". This campaign is intended to engage everyone across the province about emergency preparedness, and to raise awareness about action and accountability in a manner that is both interactive and entertaining.
Statistics Canada revealed that just 47% of Canadians possess an emergency survival kit. The Office of the Fire Marshal and Emergency Management (OFMEM) stress the importance of owning your own emergency survival kit.
