Emergency Planning-Old

In accordance with the Emergency Management and Civic Protection Act, every municipality is required to have an Emergency Plan.

The Town of Parry Sound is committed to working hard towards the safety of its residents by providing expert knowledge and training to its Emergency Management Team. The Team works closely with community partners and neighbouring municipalities for the protection of life and property and to mitigate effects in the event of an emergency situation.

Large scale emergencies can occur at anytime and although the Emergency Management Team is dedicated to providing the community with as much emergency relief as possible it's important that residents also follow some simple steps.

The best defense during an emergency is having the required information and knowledge.
