Working Together to Meet Demand

Manufactures in Canada and/or has ready access to necessary inputs through their supply chain
Has equipment or facilities that can be rapidly re-tooled to meet medical needs, including for personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves, masks and surgical gowns, sanitizer, wipes, ventilators, and other medical equipment/supplies
Has skilled workers who are able to respond and who could be available for work in the current circumstances
If you can help, you are encouraged to send a short summary of your offer to ic.mid-dim.ic@canada.ca.
