Codes and standards impact firefighting in Canada greatly. The most important code for firefighting is the National Fire Code of Canada, 2020 by the National Research Council of Canada. New changes to the code are implemented approximately every five years to ensure safety standards are updated with modern technology

Codes are either adopted outright by jurisdictions or amended or supplemented to suit regional needs and then published as territorial or provincial codes. Enforcement is also the responsibility of the provincial or territorial Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ).
Please check out some of the codes below which influence firefighting. These codes, and other standards, are available from the library's database, CSA OnDemand. If you'd like to know more about standards and codes, please review the library's, Standards and Codes research guide which provides an overview of how they work in Canada.
