Mission
According to the Civil Protection Act, local municipalities are responsible for ensuring that an emergency 9-1-1 call centre serves their territory. It is also their responsibility to finance the costs of these 9-1-1 call centres. The job of the emergency 9-1-1 call centres is to answer calls from persons in distress, determine the nature of the emergency and forward the calls to the appropriate emergency service (police, fire department, ambulance, etc).
The Agence municipale de financement et de développement des centres d'urgence 9-1-1 du Québec (the "Agency") is a non profit organization designated in accordance with the Act respecting municipal taxation to collect, administer the revenues of the municipal tax for 9-1-1 service and distribute these revenues according to its own rules among local municipalities for the purposes of financing emergency 9-1-1 call centres.
The Agency is governed by a board of directors comprising representatives of the Union of Municipalities of the Province of Québec, the Fédération québécoise des municipalités and the Ville de Montréal, in equal numbers. The Minister of Municipal Affairs, Regions and Land Occupancy designated a member of its office to take part, as an observer, to the Agency’s board of directors meetings.
