Call for Speakers 
Fire Rescue Canada (FRC) 2023
September 17 - 20, 2023
Halifax, Nova Scotia

Background:
For over 20 years, the Canadian Association of Fire Chiefs (CAFC) has hosted its national conference, Fire Rescue Canada (FRC). This national conference gives fire chiefs from across the country, many of whom are also emergency managers, the opportunity to convene for educational and networking purposes.

This is a niche conference intended to facilitate and foster relationship building across the sector. The planning committee makes an effort to ensure relevance to all department types from large metro to small rural, from career to composite to volunteer.

For those not familiar with FRC, during this event we host our annual general meeting, our awards gala, and take the time to catch up with each other. We hear new topics both from within the membership, and from guests who may be politicians, journalists, researchers, clinicians, policy experts, musicians, artists, athletes among others. Some discussions result in resolutions, ideas and programs that show up in the next year’s operating plan. We look forward to hearing your ideas. Thanks for considering your submission! All submissions are due March 20, 2023. 

About the Call for Speakers:
The call for speakers includes invitations for 90 minute workshops, 1 hour keynote or plenary sessions, 30 minute break out talks, and 15 minute “lightening” talks. Please note that this includes time for questions.
