Partnering for Safer Nations
Prevention & Protection for Your Community
Higher Risk Community
First Nations communities face much higher fire risks. Indigenous people experience fire related death rates approximately 5 times higher than non-Indigenous Canadians.
Protection Systems
Through our partnership with Treaty Fire Services Inc. we will provide awareness, access, and availability to the Guardian Fire Shield a life saving fire protection technology.
Partners For Safety
Volunteer fire teams / community responders often can't afford traditional live fire training. Our partners solve that by covering costs to deliver, practical training at zero cost to you.
