Canadian Army Looking To Hire 300 Reservists | July 18, 2023 | Micah Quinn | Bridge City News

Canadian army reservists play a key role in providing support to those impacted by wildfires and floods in Alberta.

Back in May, wildfires threatened Alberta communities in northern and central Alberta.

A total of 135 volunteers were deployed to Drayton Valley to protect the community.

Colonel Christopher Hunt, the commander of the 41 Canadian Brigade Group, stopped by Lethbridge to explain how the military is looking to hire over 300 reservists between now and the end of the year.

Caroline Patton, the Alberta Chair of the Canadian Forces Liaison Council offered details as to some of the supports available that reservists can tap into.

The 41 Canadian Brigade Group has about 1,700 Reserve soldiers in Lethbridge, Medicine Hat, Red Deer Calgary, Edmonton, and even some in Yellowknife.
