Even the Canadian baws helped out after Katrina:

Vancouver Urban Search and Rescue
One of the first things Canada did was to deploy Vancouver Urban Search and Rescue to Louisiana. They arrived on a WestJet Airlines aircraft in Lafayette, Louisiana on the evening of August 31, 2005. Due to security and logistics issues in the disaster area surrounding New Orleans, the team started operations on September 3; they saved 30 people that day. They were the first outside responders to arrive in St. Bernard Parish, beating American response teams[2]. By the time they returned to Vancouver on September 6, they had reportedly saved over 110 people.
