WORKING CLOSELY TO ENSURE THE SAFETY AND WELL-BEING OF SASKATCHEWAN PEOPLE
Participating in a joint meeting this past Sunday between the Federal Government, Provincial Government, City of Saskatoon, FSIN, Metis Nation, SPSA, First Nations, and first responders was a reassuring experience.
The meeting demonstrating that all elected representatives are working together to address this emergency.

We will continue to work closely with local community leaders to ensure a coordinated response and keep residents informed of the latest developments. The safety and well-being of Saskatchewan people remain our utmost priority.

THE GOVERNMENTS OF CANADA AND SASKATCHEWAN TO PROVIDE RED CROSS FUNDING TO HELP THOSE IMPACTED BY SASKATCHEWAN WILDFIRES
Premier Scott Moe, "I would like to express my heartfelt support for the people and the communities affected by this year’s devastating wildfires.
In an effort to support wildfire evacuees, our government will be providing $15M to the Canadian Red Cross to work directly with the Saskatchewan Public Safety Agency.
The federal government will also match every dollar donated to the Canadian Red Cross 2025 Saskatchewan Wildfires Appeal - every $1 donated will become $2 to support families and individuals impacted by wildfires.
Thank you to all Canadians for coming together to support those affected and to help communities recover and rebuild with strength and resilience.
As wildfires continue to impact communities in our province, we are committed to working with municipal and Indigenous leadership, the federal government and the Canadian Red Cross to ensure a coordinated and compassionate response.
Donations to the Red Cross can be made online at www.redcross.ca or by calling 1-800-418-1111."
