is far to complete.
I've been through the Canadian Army Reserves, and I've done my share of survalist style excersices. Including a fair share of 'interior' camping (sites you can't get to by motor-vehicle).
If I've learned one thing: don't pack the kitchen sink. You know what what be better than a Toronto Emergency Kit?
Recommending you go camping with your family sometime. Then you'll realize what you can be resources about with limit materials, and what extra yuppie stuff is a gratuitous hassle.
I shared the emergency kit with my friends, but to be honest I was biased. My thought was that either
a) the crisis allows you to stay in your house, in which case you don't need 95$ of the kit, or
b) you have to be mobile - i.e. get the heck out of your house. If you need to be mobile it is impractical to be anything less than stream lined efficient in what you drag with you.
The guide that the kit is par of recommends having a crisis action plan. But for many sorts of crises, going camping once or twice is probably better preparation. Let toronto put that in the book.

post script - the book has lots of fine to good stuff in there too.
