The purpose of this dataset is to make it possible to locate civil security events recorded by the Operations Department of the Ministry of Public Security. It brings together in a structured way operational information related to claims that have had an impact on citizens, goods or services to the population since June 2020. It contains information concerning the date of reporting, the hazard, the municipality and the severity of the event.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

The Ministry of Public Security (MSP) supports the development of knowledge of flood risks. Flood markers make it possible to illustrate the water level reached during a very major flood and thus to raise public awareness of the risks associated with it while maintaining this awareness of risk in the collective memory. __What is a flood marker? __ A flood mark is a physical mark (15 cm in diameter for the standard) testifying to the maximum level reached by a watercourse during a very significant flood on a given date. The flood marker is usually located at a permanent location and is easily visible to everyone, for example on the wall of a building or on a dedicated pole. __Point data set “Flood references” __ The point data set “Flood markers” contains, for each coordinate system, the location, the date of the reference flood and the maximum water level reached. The list of all attributes is provided in the dataset description sheet (Additional Information section). Despite the quality of the work carried out, the Ministry of Public Security cannot guarantee the absence of errors in the data. __Related datasets__ The “Flood Water Levels” dataset produced by the Ministry of Public Security also contains maximum water levels reached during a flood. The link to this dataset is provided in the _Documentation_ section.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

Data set listing the interventions carried out by the Montreal Fire Safety Service (SIM), including the location of interventions and the units deployed since 2005. This data is taken from the Workstation Assisted Dispatch System (RAO), a central subsystem of the intervention management system that allows real-time management, vehicle dispatch and operational monitoring of interventions. This data is collected to produce reports required by the Ministry of Public Security and required for the SIM. It also makes it possible to compile statistics in order to disseminate information to citizens, the media and insurers.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

The Ministry of Public Security (MSP) supports the development of knowledge of flood risks. In collaboration with Laval University and the Reunification of Quebec Basin Organizations, the MSP has developed a methodical and rigorous process for documenting floods that have an impact on the safety of people and essential goods. Thus, since 2017, the Ministry of Public Security (MSP) has been acquiring in certain cases data related to the water level reached when floods with proven consequences occur in southern Quebec. Maximum water levels are indicated by flood slopes. __What is a flood disaster? __ A flood (flood) is characterized by a rise in water on land that is usually dry, the reaching of a peak, then a descent of water (decline). Waste forms at the beginning of the flood when the water, when withdrawing, deposits materials that were in suspension or floating. These materials (mud, seeds, twigs and other debris) constitute flood wastes or flood plains. __Marking and surveying floodplains and water levels__ The marking of floodwaters and water levels takes place in the field shortly after the peak of the flood. The physical indices of the maximum water level reached (abandoned by the flood) or of the current water levels are identified and marked using permanent markers (markers). Afterwards, a land surveyor will precisely record the location and the altitude of the markers. __Point data set “Water levels during a flood"__ The point data set “Water levels during a flood” contains, for each marker, the date, altitude and location (measured by a land surveyor). There are two main types of observations made in the field: the natural flood defect (line of mud, seeds or trace of water) which indicates the maximum water level reached during the flood (called MAX) and the water level observed during the field visit (called CURRENT). The list of all attributes is provided in the dataset description sheet (Additional Information section). Despite the quality of the work carried out, the Ministry of Public Security cannot guarantee the absence of errors in the data. __Related datasets__ The “Flood reference” dataset produced by the Ministry of Public Security also contains maximum water levels reached during a flood. The link to this dataset is provided in the _Documentation_ section.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

__IMPORTANT NOTES__: * The official description of the territory targeted by preventive measures in connection with forest fires remains the one found in the order of the Ministry of Public Security (MSP) and published on the __Québec.ca__ site. The link is provided in the _Documentation_ section located at the bottom of the page. * The data disseminated on this page is a cartographic representation of the official territory identified in the ministerial order for ease of visualization and cannot be used for other purposes. * If no measures are in place, no polygon will be displayed on the map browser or will be present in the downloaded data. ------------ Preventive measures may be ordered by the Minister of Public Safety (MSP) under of article 150.9 of the _Fire Safety Act_ (chapter S-3.4), resulting from the sanction of bill _Law 50_ (An Act to enact the _Civil Safety Act_ to promote resilience to disasters and to amend various provisions relating in particular to emergency communications centers and forest fire protection) in May 2024. These measures are implemented when a forest fire or the risk of such a fire so requires. The ultimate objective is to ensure public safety. The measures in place must be respected from the date they come into force, until they are withdrawn or amended. The two most frequently applied measures are the ban on open fires in or near the forest (IFCO) and the ban on driving and accessing the forest (ICAF). Other measures could also be issued by the minister, depending on the extent of the situation. SOPFEU also issues a notice of restriction or cessation of forest work (RTF) to its members. The following paragraphs detail each of the measures. __Prohibition of open fires in or near forests (IFCO) __ This measure aims to reduce the incidence of the ignition of man-made fires by prohibiting open fires in a given territory. An open fire is defined as any outdoor fire that burns freely or that could spread into a forest area, such as a campfire or fireplace, a pyrotechnic element, a flame, or a spark produced by an object. The following activities are allowed: * a solid fuel fireplace, stove or barbecue fire, ignited in an installation provided for this purpose and equipped with a spark arrester whose openings have a maximum size of 1 cm; * a stove or barbecue running on gas, ethanol or other non-solid fuel. __Prohibition of movement and access in the forest (ICAF) __ This measure aims to ensure public safety by prohibiting the population from all trips to the forest on a territory determined by the minister. Only persons involved in firefighting, public safety or authorized by a representative of the Minister, and only as part of an ongoing operation, can access the forest. This measure may or may not be accompanied by an evacuation order. __Restriction of forest work (RTF) __ This measure is issued by SOPFEU to its members and constitutes a recommendation to completely suspend (24 hours a day), or to restrict to certain periods of the day (12 p.m. to 8 p.m. or 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.), forest work as well as forest management activities. It is being deployed in accordance with the implementation of a ban on open fires in forests (IFCO).**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**
