Emergency Preparedness Week, running May 3 to 9, 2026, encourages Canadians to ‘take action’ under the theme “Be Prepared. Know Your Risks.” Coordinated by Public Safety Canada, this national initiative promotes understanding local hazards and the importance of planning ahead. For businesses, it’s a timely reminder of the value of commercial pre-loss planning to help reduce disruption, protect assets, and support faster recovery when disasters strike. From emergency plans to preparedness kits, proactive steps today can make a critical difference for organizations and communities nationwide.
