Note: This survey allows you to start your response and continue it later, but you must hit continue in order to save it (when you restart you can continue). We will only collate the data after the requested deadline.

The Canadian Association of Fire Chiefs (CAFC), in collaboration with the National Advisory Council (NAC), its Answer the Call committee and the Data committee, are excited to announce that the 2024 Great Canadian Fire Census data collection has started! 

Starting on May 2 and until the extended deadline of June 24, 2024, we are asking you to provide us with your departmental data as at April 30, 2024 or latest 12 months reporting available. We’d like only 1 response per department.

All departments who submit data will be entered in a weekly prize draws ($100 cash prizes, FRC registration, and more). Those who have already submitted their data remain eligible for each draw. The earlier you submit, the more chances of winning you will have. Winners will be announced weekly.
