North Shore Rescue is a volunteer community-based search and rescue team. Its members are from all walks of life but share a common interest in providing an important life-saving service to the public, 24 hours a day, every day of the year.

The team has existed for 40 years, making it one of the oldest SAR teams in Canada. During this time the number of calls each year has gradually increased. Over the past 40 years the team has been involved in more than 1000 mountain search and rescue operations volunteering over 53,000 hours of effort. These calls have involved over 900 subjects, and approximately 25% of the calls have involved subject injuries or death.
