#TSAR receives no support from the Provincial government & limited support from the Canadian Coast Guard Auxiliary. Our success relies upon people like you, who can gather corporate and individual donations. This week we're highlighting just how costly running @torontosar is.

Check out this video of two Royal Canadian Air Force #SAR Techs from 424 Squadron jumping into a remote location southeast of Moosonee, Ont. this past weekend to assist OPP North East Region and Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources in evacuating 12 canoeists who were forced from their camp by a bear. #Rescue!

A sudden cardiac event can happen anytime, anywhere. So what happened when we were going nowhere on the HHB during the Halifax Civic Events #NatalDay Parade? We practiced #HandsOnlyCPR. Immediate #CPR gives the subject the best chance. You can’t hurt-only help.

Yesterday, a Royal Canadian Air Force CH-146 Griffon helicopter from #3Wing Bagotville’s 439 Combat Support Squadron picked up two people stranded near Lac Marjo, Qué. after their plane crashed, and brought them safely to Chicoutimi. #Rescue! #SAR (1/2)

The Royal Canadian Air Force helicopter was part of a fast #SAR response from #JRCC Trenton thanks to the aircraft having a functioning 406 mHz beacon onboard. A good reminder for aviators to make sure all aircraft have a working 406 mHz beacon, because they save lives! (2/2)

While these kits are great for ease of mind, have you ever tried to create a "home-built" version of a kit? One of our followers - Ronan shared a great post about his survival kit that he put together, containing the basics.
