To receive alerts about wildfires, current restrictions, and the fire danger rating, create your SOPFEU profile today. Whether you're in the forest or at home, stay connected to essential safety information.

By creating a profile, you can:

  • Receive the fire danger rating for your selected area(s);

  • Stay informed about current preventive measures and restrictions;

  • Choose how you want to be notified: email, SMS, or mobile notification;

  • Set the frequency: daily or only when there's a change;

  • Receive SOPFEU public notices.

Targeting options available:

  • By administrative region, municipality, or GPS point;

  • By fire danger zone (especially useful for partners managing fire danger rating signs).

Available on both the SOPFEU website (mobile and desktop) and in the new SOPFEU app.

Press releases

Press releases inform the population about the current situation, the implementation of preventive measures, or wildfire prevention topics in Québec. On average, we issue around 20 notices per year.

These releases are intended for industry members and SOPFEU partners. They provide updates on the implementation of preventive measures such as work restrictions in forested areas or the suspension of industrial burn permit issuance.
