17 August 2021
XPERA WORKS WITH EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT ONTARIO TO COORDINATE RELIEF EFFORTS FOR THE WABASEEMOONG INDEPENDENT NATIONS’ WILDFIRE EVACUATION.
With boots on the ground in London Ontario, Xpera is providing emergency response needs for evacuees displaced from their homes due to wildfires in Northwestern Ontario. Hundreds of Wabaseemoong Independent Nations members were relocated to London in need of lodging, food services, transportation, safety and security, onsite primary care, youth services, and wellness support. Xpera is onsite managing these logistics as well as the procurement of other necessities, as band members wait out the wildfire threats. Xpera Director, Rob Garland, speaks to CTV News London.
