Danger Tree Services - Bear Creek Complex

Parks Canada awarded a contract to Freestyle Forestry Limited for danger tree assessment and felling services to protect fire crews during wildfires in Wood Buffalo National Park in 2026, under an urgent procurement process due to extreme urgency.

Description

This contract for Danger Tree Assessors/Danger Tree Fellers enabled Parks Canada to ensure the safety of fire crews from danger trees on the fireline as required by Safe Work Practices and Occupational Health and Safety for out-of-control wildfires in Wood Buffalo National Park during the summer of 2026. The only practicable way to move forward in the available timeframe was under an urgent direct Request for Quotation process. A legitimate objective was applied to allow for deviation from minimum public tendering periods under domestic and international trade agreements. This measure was necessary in order to achieve the legitimate objective, specifically the protection of human, animal, and plant life and health.
