Skills Gap Trainer comment:
 
Your dedication to emergency planning, resilience, and life skill building is both commendable and essential in our current landscape. We recognize your depth of knowledge and firmly believe that various bodies and communities, from preppers to Members of Parliament, the Senate of Canada, the Standing Committee on Public Safety and National Security, the Standing Senate Committee on Defence, and the Department of National Defence, would immensely benefit from your insights.
 
Several gaps and areas of concern have emerged in our national emergency and defense infrastructures:
 
– Emergency Operation Centers (EOC): These centers, in their current form, seem more representative of bureaucratic hubs than the very nerve centers of our emergency response. Their structure is primarily centered on reactive measures rather than the proactive building of resilience. They may often seem more equipped with administrative personnel rather than frontline responders. Their potential dependence on dated technological systems could jeopardize their efficacy during real-time crises. There is an undeniable need to investigate, highlight, and offer solutions to bolster the capability of frontline responders within the Emergency Operation Centers, ensuring they are fortified to confront modern challenges.
 
– Military Bases: Concerns include deactivated equipment, communication tools that might be outdated, and a perceivable lack of hands-on training. During the Cold War, soldiers in Eastern Europe were in the Barracks all day training, shooting and cleaning rifles daily. The conspicuous absence of fortified greenhouses, advanced water systems, food storage areas, and facilities resistant to electromagnetic pulses (EMPs) is also a significant concern.
 
– Frontline Equipment and Supplies: A robust frontline response is determined not only by personnel but equally by the equipment and resources at their disposal. Comprehensive planning should consider:
 
> Communication Devices: Radios, satellite phones, EMP-resistant communication systems.
> Medical Supplies: Fully-stocked first-aid kits, antiseptics, essential medicines, and portable medical equipment. .
> Backup pharmacies housing critical medications, vacuum-sealed for extended preservation.
> Shelter and Warmth: Emergency tents, sleeping bags, waterproof matches, and portable heaters.
> Water and Food: Water purification systems, long-lasting food rations, & tools for sourcing and preparing food.
> Food Production and Preservation: Gardening tools, seeds for high-yield crops, vacuum sealers, dehydrators, canning equipment, and manuals on food storage techniques.
> Lighting and Signaling: Hand-crank torches, glow sticks, flares, and signal mirrors.
> Navigation Tools: Compasses, maps, GPS devices.
> Protection and Defense: Personal protective equipment, non-lethal self-defense tools or lethal for certified professional officers.
> Power Generation: Solar chargers, battery banks, hand-crank generators.
> Miscellaneous: Multipurpose tools, duct tape, rope.
 
Regrettably, we’ve observed our government’s focus diverting towards more contentious and arguably divisive matters such as drawn-out debates on gun control, moves towards digital censorship, and other restrictive policies. These energies could be far better directed into strengthening our national resilience.
 
With tools of the digital age at our disposal, platforms like change org give us an avenue to galvanize public opinion and emphasize the need for the government to recalibrate its priorities. It’s also imperative to encourage the community to communicate their concerns to notable Conservative MPs such as Pierre Poilievre, Melissa Lantsman, Andrew Scheer, Chris Warkentin, Leslie Lewis, Michael Barrett, Larry Brock, Blaine Calkins, Michael Chong, Michael Cooper, Raquel Dancho, Dane Lloyd, Michelle Rempel Garner, Alex Ruff, among others.
 
Survival, as we recognize, is paramount. However, the annals of history are filled with stories of brave souls who, at crucial junctures, opted to fight for the future, even at the cost of their present. While one’s immediate safety is invariably vital, there come moments when the best among us must risk their current well-being for a cause much grander than themselves. In our current times, the entity worth standing up for might not always be a government or even our immediate community, but the future is a perennial cause. The future represents hope, a reason for our very existence, and a beacon for a brighter tomorrow. Let this thought guide our actions and embolden our resolve. – SGT Team
