Building Wildfire Response Capacity Through Community Training

In October 2026, Métis Nation-Saskatchewan (MN-S) partnered with Big River Local 59 and the Saskatchewan Public Safety Agency (SPSA) to deliver Type 3 Wildland Firefighter Training for Métis citizens, local residents, and MN-S staff. The training brought together 12 participants, helping to strengthen the urgent need for wildfire response capacity in both the Region and across the province. As wildfire seasons continue to intensify, initiatives like this play a critical role in ensuring communities have trained personnel ready to respond when needed.

Type 3 wildland firefighters provide valuable support during wildfire operations by assisting primary response crews, undertaking lower-risk firefighting assignments, and assisting regional partners with prescribed burns. Their role helps expand local response capabilities while building a skilled workforce that can contribute to emergency management efforts.

MN-S extends its congratulations to all participants on successfully completing the course and thanks Big River Local 59 and the SPSA for their leadership and partnership in making the training event possible.

MN-S encourages other Métis Locals and Regions to reach out to the Ministry of Emergency Management at [email protected] and to explore similar training opportunities within their communities.

Today we honour the legacy of Louis Riel who was born 182 years ago today in Saint Boniface at the Red River Settlement in 1844. Among many things, Riel was a leader and a visionary who fought to protect the rights of the Métis Nation during the Red River and North-West Resistances.

Métis children and families are facing funding gaps and significant barriers when trying to access the cultural, health, social, and educational services they need. There is currently no federal initiative to support them. The result is ongoing disparities in health, education, social, and cultural wellbeing for Métis children in our Nation.

Did you know approximately 75% of breast cancer diagnosed through the Saskatchewan Cancer Agency’s BreastCheck program is found at an early stage?

Breast screening can bring questions. When should you start? Where do you go? How do you book?
The Saskatchewan Cancer Agency’s BreastCheck program offers screening mammograms that can help diagnose early, before symptoms appear. With centres and mobile units across our province, the program helps bring screening closer to home.
