Ontario is a partner to the national Emergency Management Strategy for Canada: Toward a Resilient 2030. Under the EM Strategy for Canada, the province will work collectively with federal, provincial, and territorial (FPT) partners in Canada to strengthen the resilience of Canadian society by 2030. The Emergency Management Strategy for Canada seeks to guide FPT governments, and their respective emergency management partners, in carrying out priorities aimed at strengthening Canada's ability to assess risks and to prevent/mitigate, prepare for, respond to, and recover from disasters.

EMO is undertaking a refresh of the Ontario EM strategy that will outline the goals and objectives that emergency management programs in Ontario strive to achieve, supported and guided by emergency management principles and components.
