In Canada, a Special Threat Assessment Group (STAG) was formed in 1976 as an interdepartmental committee to assess, prevent, contain or otherwise assist in the response to terrorist threats and incidents involving the use of nuclear, biological, or chemical agents. Chaired by an official of Health Canada, it is comprised of medical professionals and scientists charged with assessing a threat's credibility, feasibility, magnitude and potential of likely consequences, as well as helping to identiy the medical and physical resources required to respond. In addition, there is a Nuclear, Biological and Chemical (NBC) Response Team belonging to the Canadian Forces, attached to the NBC School at CFB Borden, Ontario. It is capable of providing on-site advice and technical assistance in isolating, containing, and assessing the hazard; providing any necessary first aid and removal of casualties; collecting and packaging samples for later analysis; and supervising decontamination or clean-up operations. It has conducted a number of exercises and co-operative training with the RCMP and other authorities, and would be activated upon a request from the federal Solicitor General. 1, record 13, English, - Special%20Threat%20Assessment%20Group

Un Groupe spécial d’évaluation de la menace(GSEM) a été créé au Canada, en 1976. Ce comité interministériel est chargé d’évaluer les menaces et les attentats terroristes nucléaires, chimiques ou biologiques, de les prévenir, de les contenir ou de prêter assistance de quelque façon que ce soit dans de tels cas. Présidé par un représentant de Santé Canada, ce comité regroupe des professionnels de la santé et des scientifiques dont la tâche consiste à évaluer la crédibilité, la plausibilité, l'ampleur et les conséquences possibles ou probables de la menace ainsi qu'à déterminer les ressources médicales et matérielles nécessaires pour y faire face. De plus, les Forces canadiennes comptent une Équipe d’intervention en cas d’urgence nucléaire, biologique et chimique(NBC) qui est attachée à l'École de guerre nucléaire, biologique et chimique à la BFC Borden, en Ontario. Cette équipe peut donner des conseils et apporter une aide technique sur place en isolant, maîtrisant et évaluant les risques, en donnant les premiers soins et en évacuant les victimes, en recueillant des échantillons et en les emballant en vue d’analyses ultérieures, et en supervisant la décontamination ou les opérations de nettoyage. Cette équipe a fait plusieurs exercices et séances d’entraînement avec la GRC et d’autres organismes, et serait mise en état d’alerte à la demande du Solliciteur général du Canada. 1, record 13, French, - Groupe%20sp%C3%A9cial%20de%20l%26rsquo%3B%C3%A9valuation%20de%20la%20menace
