As wildfires continue to displace communities across Manitoba and Northern, Ontario, Manitoulin Transport is proud to have played a key role in delivering 20 pallets of emergency pet food supplies, in partnership with the Hamilton Burlington SPCA (HBSPCA) and Uber Freight.

These shipments are helping feed hundreds of pets impacted by this year’s devastating wildfires.

Manitoulin Transport delivered more than 20,000 lbs of emergency pet food to Save a Dog Network Canada in Winnipeg. This critical delivery was provided at no cost through coordination with Uber Freight and ensured rapid access to food for displaced animals across Manitoba.

At Manitoulin Transport, we recognize the important role transportation can play in supporting communities during emergencies,” said Jeff King, President of Manitoulin Transport. “We’re proud to work alongside the HBSPCA to help ensure that pets, and the people who care for them, receive the supplies they need during these challenging times. We are committed to doing everything we can. It’s important to be there when it matters most.”

“These efforts underscore what’s possible when dedicated partners come together,” said John Gerrard, CEO of the HBSPCA. “Manitoulin Transport’s dedication and unwavering commitment to this cause made it possible to get food into some of the hardest-hit areas quickly and safely.”

As wildfires continue to impact communities across the country, coordinated efforts remain essential to ensure that vital resources reach those in need.
