This is a 2021 recap of a few of the many year's activities and notable achievements.
Pikangikum First Nation, an IFNA Tribal Council FN Community, was evacuated and display huge resilience and response against the wildfires which ravaged northern Ontario. Pictured is The ERTSAR (Emergency Response Team Search and Rescue) | Fire Rescue and the local Pikangikum Fire Department and the wildland firerangers, as well as a picture inside the new school wall at the Eenchokay Birchstick School Pikangikum Education Authority.

Lac Seul was selected due to their ability to host and access the centre by road.
It was a great event and provided amazing information and resources to our Fire Department members from attending communities.
