As I mentioned earlier, in budget 2019 we were able to access a specific envelope for capacity enhancement, which was the first time we had the opportunity to do that. So far, we have those 196 emergency management coordinators who can act as that type of level of support in navigation, right? They can be housed in tribal councils. They can be housed in various service delivery organizations, or in communities as well.
I would say that our regional offices, as Joanne mentioned earlier, are making sure we are more proactive in terms of really going out and doing the outreach for nations where we have not seen requests come in. Also, there has been an expansion of the opportunities to do flood mapping, for example, and more monitoring and surveillance. The technology and the ability to do that have significantly improved across the country in the last couple of years. We saw it with hurricane Fiona and some of the coverage that went out on it. If we had not had that notice of even just a few days, it would have been a different scenario altogether with respect to the impacts of the hurricane.
These are things that are rapidly advancing. Our job is to advocate and to ensure that first nations will have access to those types of supports and to those types of intelligence initiatives, essentially.
