The 92-year-old was in Canada helping build a Habitat for Humanity home when he "collapsed", a volunteer told CBC News, triggering a rush of paramedics and firefighters to assist him.

"They attended the daily morning devotional at 8 a.m. kicking off the last day of Habitat's 34th Jimmy & Rosalynn Carter Work Project", a statement on the Habitat website read.

"President Jimmy Carter has arrived at the build site to start the final day of the 2017 #HabitatCWP in Canada". He spent the night at St. Boniface Hospital, where he was treated for dehydration.

While the vibrant former president continued his busy schedule of appearances on behalf of the Carter Center and Habitat for Humanity, he did admit that he would be scaling back those appearances and slowing down a bit.

Jimmy Carter works at the build site on Thursday before falling ill from dehydration.

Canada's Global News reported the former president said "I'm tired" and sat down before he was taken to the hospital. They are working with the organization to build 150 homes this week.

The Carters have made Habitat for Humanity a centerpiece of their post-White House charitable endeavors.

"President Carter has been working hard all week".

Carter and his wife, Rosalynn Carter, shared on Friday "their appreciation for the many well-wishes he received worldwide", the Carter Center said. One of those came Thursday evening from another ex-president, Bill Clinton.
