Winter search and rescue operations are carried out by the Canadian Coast Guard using icebreakers and other available vessels in the area, if required. We also work closely with our colleagues at Canadian Armed Forces, and local and provincial agencies for search and rescue operations, as needed.
Highly trained Canadian Coast Guard Auxiliary volunteers and their vessels also remain available to help boaters in distress.
