Program Purpose
In the event of a large-scale natural disaster, the Government of Canada provides financial assistance to provincial and territorial governments through the Disaster Financial Assistance Arrangements (DFAA), administered by Public Safety Canada. When response and recovery costs exceed what individual provinces or territories could reasonably be expected to bear on their own, the DFAA provide the Government of Canada with a fair and equitable means of assisting provincial and territorial governments.
Program Purpose (French)
En cas de catastrophe naturelle importante, le gouvernement du Canada fournit une aide financière aux gouvernements provinciaux et territoriaux dans le cadre des Accords d'aide financière en cas de catastrophe (AAFCC) qui sont gérés par Sécurité publique Canada. Quand les frais d'intervention et de rétablissement en cas de catastrophe excèdent ce dont peuvent raisonnablement s'acquitter les gouvernements provinciaux ou territoriaux, les AAFCC offrent au gouvernement du Canada un moyen juste et équitable de les aider.
