The Manitoba government has launched MB Ready, a centralized portal designed to keep Manitobans informed during emergencies.
Transportation and Infrastructure Minister Lisa Naylor, minister responsible for the Emergency Management Organization (EMO), said Thursday, “In times of crisis, timely and accurate information makes navigating uncertainty a little bit easier. Our government is proud to launch this tool that will ensure every Manitoban, no matter where they live, can stay informed and connected during emergencies.”
MB Ready, managed by the EMO, will provide timely information on events as they occur and supports available to impacted Manitobans.
The site will continue to evolve in the coming weeks and months, with new features and updates aimed at improving accessibility and responsiveness.
EMO co-ordinates and manages the response to emergencies and disasters on behalf of the Manitoba government, including:
- overseeing emergency preparedness;
- managing, directing, and co-ordinating the response of all Manitoba government departments to a major emergency or disaster;
- supporting recovery efforts following an emergency or disaster; and
- implementing mitigation strategies to reduce the impacts over time.
