Standing Committee - National Security and Defence

Reports

Some reports from committees are administrative in nature. They are for the purposes of reporting past expenses, requesting powers (to travel, to televise, for example) or to request budgetary approval. Other reports reflect the decisions of the committee on the work they are doing and are more substantive in nature. These would include reports on legislation or interim and final reports on special studies.

Substantive Reports

- Thirteenth Report: Emergency Preparedness In Canada

Volume 1 contains the Committee’s search for answers, and sets out our conclusions.

Three complementary volumes – Volumes 2, 3 and 4 – contain the survey sent by the Committee to municipalities across Canada, along with their responses, listed alphabetically by municipality. Readers may wish to check whether their community responded, and if so, what local emergency officials have to say about emergency preparedness in their locale.

Volume 2 contains the responses from Abbotsford, British Columbia to Kingston, Ontario; Volume 3, from Kitchener, Ontario to Saint-Jérôme, Québec; Volume 4 from Salaberry-de-Valleyfield, Québec to Woodstock, Ontario.
