Preparedness: Municipal Emergency Plan - Know What Your City Expects you to do...

Send us Fan MailKnowledge is power, in Ontario every municipality is required to have an emergency plan, outlining what they will do in the event of a disaster and what they recommend for you to do.  It is a good place to start in your preparedness journey, but more importantly it is a great place to understand the players in the city, what their intentions are and what their priorities will be when the &^%$ hits the fan.  Knowing what your city will do is good to incorporate into your own plan, for both knowledge and to ensure that you are not planning something that will be in conflict with the municipality.  In this episode, I walk through the City of Ottawa's website on emergency preparedness, provide some commentary and add suggestions as to how you can frame this information in your own deliberations.  Very important, build a community and work together.  Support the showhttps://preparednesslabs.ca/
