Canada Task Force 5 (CANTF-5) will assess the current state of program development in all aspects of disaster response to determine the gaps and apply the program management, training, and equipment to build operational readiness. CANTF-5 will endeavor to build a resilient response capability by training the team in preparation for regional hazards (all hazards) and response to heavy urban search and rescue disasters.
The project will upsize the existing stormwater piping of the Highway 2 drainage system to accommodate stormwater flows and mitigate flooding during heavy rainfall events. Once completed, the project will reduce the risk of flooding to private property, residences and the highway corridor.
This project is the revival of CANTF-5 and the strategy will be to target training to achieve greater depth in ranks to add a support cadre to the existing trained rescuers. During this phase CANTF-5 will grow the K-9 capability by working on building partnerships and to develop MOU's and achieve automatic aid agreements within the response community. The project will continue to build CANTF-5 cache to support HUSAR operations and medial support.
