S-2.4 - Act respecting civil protection to promote disaster resilience
Section 5
Disposition versions
5. Every person must contribute to civil protection and is therefore responsible for ensuring their own safety and the safety of their property and activities.
To that end, every person must exercise prudence and foresight with regard to the disaster risks present in their environment. They must also follow the instructions of the responsible authorities in the event of a disaster or its imminence and, depending on the situation and as far as they are able to, be in a position to ensure their autonomy in the event of a disaster and contribute to limiting the consequences of the disaster.
