Manitoulin Transport helped delivered 20 pallets of emergency pet food supplies as wildfires continue to displace communities across Manitoba and Northern Ontario.

The shipments, made in partnership with the Hamilton Burlington SPCA (HBSPCA) and Uber Freight, are helping feed hundreds of pets, according to a news release.
