Toquaht Nation FireSmart Initiatives

Keeping our Citizens Safe

Toquaht Nation is pleased to provide to citizens opportunities to learn how to protect their homes, whether in Macoah or beyond.

With recent short-term funding provided by UBCM Community Funding and Supports, Toquaht Nation welcomes Rick Ayre, who will be working with citizens who reside in Macoah on how to do a FireSmart Assessment. Rick is also available for consultation with citizens who live away from home by providing help to access FireSmart coordinators in your community.

Over the next several months, Rick will be available with the latest information on FireSmart Assessments, educational tools and more. For information or to arrange for a call or visit, please contact Rick at firesmart@toquaht.ca.
