Overview
About ICE Field Guide
A kit without instructions is a bag of objects. The ICE Field Guide is the manual we wanted in the drawer: short checklists for the first hour, the first day and the first week of the emergencies Canadian households actually face, with the reasoning underneath for when the situation does not match the list.
It is printed on waterproof, tear-resistant paper, spiral bound to lie flat, and it works with no battery and no signal. The back section is your household plan: contacts, meeting places, shut-off locations and medication lists to fill in now.
What it does not do
We would sooner you knew now.
- General guidance, not professional medical or legal advice.
- Always follow instructions from local emergency officials first.

Questions
Why a printed book when everything is online?
Because the emergencies you are preparing for are the ones where the phone is at 4% and the network is down. Paper needs no power, survives being dropped in a puddle, and can be read by anyone in the household.
Can I return it?
Yes. Unopened kits can be returned within 30 days of delivery for a refund. See the Shipping & Returns page for the details.
