First of all, I believe every province and territory is motivated. They simply have fewer resources. When you look at somewhere like Nunavut and compare it to Alberta, you can see the automatic difference. It's something like the Yukon to Alberta. That's where you need to ensure that there's mutual aid between bordering organizations.
That's where the role of the federal government comes in, to make sure there's an even capability in provinces that don't have the ability to do it themselves. I don't mean by using the Department of National Defence. I mean by building their emergency management operations capability and coordinating across moving public or not-for-profit agencies as required during an emergency.
