The Canadian Red Cross was in town today giving a crash course on disaster dining.
Three teams used a variety of canned goods and non parishable items found in 72-hour emergency kits to create a meal that would impress Mayor Ivan Court.
Carolyn Enman is the Lead for New Brunswick Disaster Management and tells CHSJ News every family should have a 72-hour emergency kit.
She says every emergency kit should have a lot of protein and 2 litres of water, per person, per day.
Mayor Ivan Court had the honour of judging the competition and says Saint John has heavy rain storms where the power goes out so you never know when you might need those extra couple of cans.
