Some level of deduction for equipment/depreciation/services rendered would be appropriate, or possibly a tax credit. Another option would be donating to a charity which then compensates people for expenditures during situations like this; the challenge is doing it after the fact. However, it's not like this is the last time the CN will respond, so it could also be done prospectively. I've shown up at car accidents as a private individual and expended wool blankets (not taking one back after it's covered in blood), first aid supplies, water, etc. Maybe $300-500 lifetime total, which isn't a big deal for me, but it'd be nice to be able to get reimbursed/replaced.
