Canada-British Columbia Wildfires Recovery Initiative

British Columbia’s food producers felt the impact of the largest wildfire season on record. That’s why your provincial government, in partnership with the federal government has announced the 2018 Canada-British Columbia Wildfires Recovery Initiative to help British Columbia’s agriculture sector recover from the impact of wildfires.

This initiative will provide up to $5 million to assist British Columbia’s farmers and ranchers with the extraordinary costs incurred as a result of the 2018 wildfires.

Assistance will include:

• Costs related to ensuring animal health and safety.
• Feed, shelter and transportation costs for livestock.
• Costs to re-establish perennial crop and pasture production damaged by fire.
