Moose Cree First Nation: Flood Alert Level Downgrade – Level 4

Press Release

May 4, 2026

Following today’s surveillance and a review by our Emergency Operations Control Group, it has been determined that we will continue with our downgrading alert process and are now at Level 4.

This means that water levels remain high but are no longer at critical levels, water levels continue to decrease.

The process to return all evacuees from Moose Factory Island has started.

However, the return of community members will take time and require planning and coordination. Flight schedules will be confirmed once aircraft are secured to support these flights.

Updates will be shared as soon as more information becomes available.

Flights will be coordinated in the south through your host site, and you will receive your travel details there. Our community liaisons will continue working closely with host sites to support a smooth and safe transition back to the community.

Those who previously registered and self-evacuated please email spring2026@moosecree.com with your name, planned return date, and transportation will be covered.

Thank you for your continued patience and cooperation as we work together to bring everyone home safely.
