AIRDRIE, Alberta - eTradeWire -- ttps://In the past two weeks, a wave of governments has told citizens the same thing: be ready to look after yourself. The UK launched its "Be Ready" campaign on 22 October, asking households to keep three days of water, food, medicine, a torch and a charged power bank. Japan says it will ask every household to keep at least three days of supplies, ideally a week, starting 2 November. France, the Netherlands, Finland, Canada and Mexico advise 72 hours. Sweden and Norway say a week. Germany says up to ten days.

Governments are reminding citizens that emergency preparedness starts at home. The UK's "Be Ready" campaign, launched on October 22, encourages households to prepare for disruptions by keeping essential supplies available. Every household should have a 72-hour emergency kit containing drinking water, non-perishable food, necessary medications, a flashlight, batteries, and a fully charged power bank. A practical emergency plan helps families respond confidently to power outages, severe weather, and unexpected disruptions. Survival Viper promotes practical preparedness, self-reliance, and essential survival skills. Start preparing today. Build capability, gain confidence, and be ready for whatever comes next.

"Every one of these governments is saying the same thing: when the lights go out, help may not come for days, so the first 72 hours are on you," said Paul Rockwood, founder of Survival Viper. "That's not a reason to panic. It's a reason to get organized. Most families are one weekend of work away from being ready. We built Prep My House so you can see where you stand in five minutes and fix it."

What governments recommend keeping at home (72-hour baseline):

• Water: about 3 litres per person per day
• Non-perishable food for every household member
• Essential medicines and a first-aid kit
• Flashlight, battery or crank radio, charged power bank
• Some cash, in case card systems are down
• Copies of key documents
