The federal government is taking steps to address emergency preparedness on first nation communities.
That according to Kenora M.P. Greg Rickford.
He was responding to the auditor general's report, which suggested the
department of Indian Affairs hasn't set aside adequate resources to
deal with emergencies in aboriginal communities.
Rickford says the federal government is also working out a clearer response plan in the case of emergencies, for departments at both the federal and provincial level.
