In April 2025 the FWB board of directors approved the Logistics and Equipment Management Protocol. The protocol provides guidance for FWB to expand the organization’s service provision throughout Ontario by dividing the province into five distinct yet integrated districts. The concept is one where each district develops its own network of equipment collection, transportation and distribution in accordance with approved projects for training and support, in their respective region. The central district will remain the primary organizational and distribution hub for international shipments. However, each of the four regional Ontario districts is crucial towards ensuring efficient and effective service allocation within their particular region.
