National Day of Recognition for Search & Rescue Teams in Canada

On June 21st of this year - Coquitlam City Councillor Teri Towner initiated a House of Commons e-Petition calling upon the Government of Canada to proclaim March 1st of each year as Search and Rescue Day to honour the living, past and present search and rescue volunteers to whom Canadians owe an immense debt of gratitude and show Canadians' collective appreciation in recognition the service provided by the search and rescue community

You can sign the e-Petition here until Friday, October 19th, 2018 and then will be presented to the House of Commons by Councillor Towner's local MP, Ron McKinnon (Lib - Port Coquitlam/Coquitlam)

My personal appreciation to Councillor Towner for her work on this great initiative and I truly hope it succeeds.
