Important Update for Ontario Fire Services

The Government of Canada has announced temporary six-month relief from U.S. tariffs on specific goods used by public safety organizations, including Fire Services.

What does this mean for your department?

  • No additional tariffs will apply to eligible fire equipment imported from the United States.
  • Online transactions are now live, with no tariffs added to our prices.

Why was this remission granted?
To support key sectors crucial to Canadians' health and safety — including fire departments — the Government of Canada is providing temporary customs relief.
This measure helps ensure that public safety organizations like yours have uninterrupted and affordable access to critical equipment, while offering time to adjust procurement strategies if needed.
