Employment Insurance payouts for those affected by Saskatchewan’s wildfires are being fast-tracked.
Desnethe-Missinippi-Churchill River Conservative MP Rob Clarke has announced a special reference code will be given to those affected so their claims are directed to a special task force team which will make sure the claims get priority.
He says people who file should expect to hear back from Service Canada within two days of filing.
During the evacuation period, Service Canada staff went to the evacuation centres to see what assistance was needed.
Clients can go to the La Ronge Service Canada office if they need help, or can file online at servicecanada.gc.ca.
