Vision for DEMSA

My vision is that the council, in next 3-year, should be one of the most active councils at York as well as in Toronto amongst Emergency Management organizations, highly respected, credible, and hub of knowledge on Disaster & Emergency Management.

There is a need to strength the council organizational base, build closer and effective networks in the industry, above all close coordination and communication with the fellow DEM program comrades.
