The Canadian Coast Guard Auxiliary (CCGA) is pleased to announce Mustang Survival as its first official partner. This partnership, solidified through a Memorandum of Understanding, spans a three-year term and outlines the mutual support in promoting boating safety and educational initiatives.

“When I visited Mustang Survival and saw their building with the powerful message, ‘We Save Lives for a Living,’ it was clear that our values are deeply aligned,” says Shari Affleck, Executive Director of the CCGA. “I knew right then that a great partnership was not only possible but inevitable!”

Mustang Survival and the Canadian Coast Guard Auxiliary share a vision of zero preventable water-related incidents. With Mustang Survival’s personal protective equipment and their shared commitment to water safety, the CCGA is now better equipped to help save lives and promote safer practices on the water. Together, the organizations aim to enhance water safety education and preparedness through CCGA nationally approved programs, including Kids Don’t Float, Pleasure Craft Safety Checks (PCSCs), and Water Safety Education & Awareness public events.
