Thank you, Mr. Chair, for the question.
We have not looked at this. This would be Public Safety's mandate to discuss with provinces on emergency management. Obviously, every level of government has its own responsibility in terms of emergency management, and you would think that every government has at heart the safety of its own citizens.
What I'll say, though, is that what we've observed over the last three years is increased coordination and increased awareness and understanding of each jurisdiction in terms of capabilities, and we have.... The chair laughed at my “speed dial”, so I'll say that we have a Teams speed dial conference that gets stood up when these crises happen, and what we've seen is increased resilience.
Obviously, all levels of government in every province are watching climate change. At the same time, there are places where it's more difficult to have all the resources in place. I think of all the first nation and isolated communities we have in Canada. This is where the CAF, through the pandemic, spent a lot of attention in doing an analysis on what we can do for those communities, because they're difficult to access. They don't have the planning capacity and all the resources available.
All that is to say that I haven't looked into specific investments in provinces, but what we can see is an increased resilience pan-government.
Thank you.
