Miramichi Ground Search and Rescue

“So others may live.”

In Canada, search and rescue (SAR) is a shared responsibility. Many partners are involved due to the country’s immense size, range of terrain and weather. The list of partners is made up of government, military, volunteer and industry groups. They all work together to provide SAR services across the nation.

Miramichi Ground Search and Rescue (MGSAR) is 1 of 10 teams in New Brunswick, Canada.  We have not only the largest jurisdiction (Northumberland County) in the province but also the least populated and extremely diverse in terrain.  We are continuously recruiting and always training in everything from; orienteering, survival, tracking, first aid and CPR to human behaviour.  We are the silent heroes.  We are the unpaid professionals.
