Wildfire season has come and once again it is my side of the country burning badly. There air quality warnings going from Manitoba into parts of Ontario because there is so much smoke. Manitoba premier Wab Kinew declared a state of emergency yesterday. Today it was Saskatchewan that declared one. BC so far is in better shape. Alberta has at least 24 active fires burning in province. People are being evacuated to Edmonton.

That sounds pretty bad.

Is it like the one from a few years ago, or do they think they'll get this one under control?

How far away are you? You're not in a place where you'd worry about anything besides the smoke if it did get bad, are you?

This could be as bad as that few years ago. Buildings have been lost and lots of smaller communities are being moved for safety reasons. But sometimes safety means driving on one road through the fires that are burning on either side.

I'm too far south on the coast thank goodness. But even where I am over the last few years we get the smoke and air quality advisories have been put out for people with lung problems.

Some are under control but others not. There are fire fighters from Eastern Canada coming out west to help. Newfoundland just sent some.

They are being fueled by high sustained winds. All we can do is hope for rain without thunder or lighting strikes. When the grass and trees are that dry. One lighting strike can do a lot of damage.

I hope it goes well for everyone and they can stop it a lot quicker than last time.

I remember that fog. It was amazing how far south it got and how thick it was still by the time it got here.

There are 73 fires burning across BC.

9 up in the Northwest Territories

Half of the fires burning in Alberta are out of control

And only a handful in Saskatchewan and Manitoba are under control.

Sorry to hear that Brenda. Glad your family is okay.

I hadn't realized that it wasn't contained since I'm barely hearing anything about it. I only knew earlier today when my Dad was telling me that the smoke around Chicago is supposed to get pretty bad tomorrow.

Yeah, when stuff like this happens I try to check in with her. She lives in small city about an hours drive or so outside of Edmonton. Fingers crossed things will stay good around her.

As the smoke goes farther south you will be hearing more about them, I am sure. Smoke being blown east in Canada. The weather and fire people figure it could reach New York and that is the smoke from out west here.

Some are lighting fires and can come up so fast that is hard to get boots on the ground, even in the flat like the prairies.

From what I'm hearing the smoke has largely missed us because it's not coming down as far south so far as they thought it would. That could change at any second though.

Thanks for the heads up in the tags though. Good lookin' out.

Hope you get some rain soon.

its happening more often, the Earth is getting stranger, the climate is changing and governments whatever they are doing don't really have solutions,
happening more often in Canada now
I seen feeds in SAmerica, in Africa, Greece, Turkey, Spain, a lot of Europe, across Asia
year 2009 was bad
2012 there were big ones in the USA
sometimes its actually a criminal immigrant, or some dumbass celebrating an event with fireworks or not putting out campfires or a fatalist crazy junkie started fires in Australia absolutely Scored Earth
2020 was very bad
Colorado 2021 and 2022
Dec 2024 - Jan 2025 very bad also
the Hawaii ones and later California were some of the worst I seen online

they are all huge now, you can see them burning the Earth from Space

There are less fires burning in BC today when from 73 down to 67. Not great but better. All fires burning seem to be in the northeastern part of the province. Close to the Rockies and BC's natural border with Alberta. It will be cooler up there and just a little rain but it won't do much. Then it crosses the Rockies into Alberta and a little more out there.

My cousin and her family in Northern Alberta may have to evacuate. The fire is just outside a small community called Beaverlodge. The winds have shifted direction. She said they've been getting ash all day. So, we'll just have to see what happens tomorrow. I know she and her family will leave if need be.

BC has gone up one. 68 fires burning. 155 properties in the Interior on evacuation notices.

There will be some rain coming into the north of BC over the weekend. But my corner is going to heat up. Looks even where I am, temps could reach almost 90F.

Stay safe, Brenda. You're pretty densely urban around you, aren't you? Like a lot of concrete and the trees are really just there for decoration?

You get yourself stocked up in case you need to stay inside to avoid the smoke for a few days?

How's your cooling situation? Do you know somebody who has A/C that you could stay for a while if you need to and you don't have your own? I always think of ice when I think of Canada and I know that's stupid, but is A/C pretty common up there or more of a rarity?

Is your water from the tap good, or do you need to stock up on some water?

Yeah, it is pretty urban around me. My building sits in the middle of the shopping district. There are trees and most line the streets but there is a park not far from me that has to be watched. Little fires over the last couple of years have started in there. But we are lucky that we also get a breeze from the river my city is right next too.

I am thinking about stocking up and other things like my meds.

I've got one fan and I probably should be able to get another. But no I don't have A/C. Don't worry about it. I have heard that story about ice and snow all year round in Canada for years.
A/C is becoming more common up here because of the heat dome that sat over my area a couple of years ago. And there are a lot of cooling centres around. Malls, the library and such.

It's tap water and it should be okay. A lot of water pipes and such have been replaced and fixed over the last few years in various cities around me. But stores do have cases of bottled water in them if needed.

Sounds like you've got it under control.

Might want to get those scrips and stock up on a few other things while you're out just to be on the safe side. At least you won't have to worry about the weight of carting around a bunch of water with your good tap water inside, but maybe if you can at least pick up a gallon or two in your travels to have on hand in case something else happens and the water becomes an issue. I'm sure they're going to be using a lot of the local supply to be putting out fires rather than using it for what it usually gets used for (taking showers, washing dishes, drinking water, etc.).

Or... I'm sure you've got some drinking pitchers and the like in your cabinets. Might want to let your tap run for a minute or two and fill a few of them up for your fridge right now.

Oh no....

I'm seeing one of them arrested was an 18 year old woman "from the Cree Nation".

They're saying the other one is a 36 year old man from a place called "Pelican Narrows".

Both of them said to be unrelated to each other. The only variance on this story that I've seen has been that there may have been 2 men involved in the case of the guy who got arrested. No names or any other information given that I can tell yet.


I've been doing some serious looking into it and I haven't found anything more out. All the articles that even say that much are all copy and paste jobs and basically say the same thing, and I think they're all copying a story by The Canadian Press News. (Are they a legit outfit? I don't read much Canadian news and have no objective opinion of them).

I wouldn't know how to try to access any public records in Canada and honestly with the way this wacky world is all topsy-turvy at the moment I don't think it would behoove me to try to learn about it right now, if ya get me.



I remember when people didn't intentionally set forests on fire and burn 7,000+ homes down.

We got to get back to that again.

This story doesn't say much more about the two who were arrested that isn't in the other copy/paste articles, but it's got a lot more information about the current situation with the fires in general than I've seen in any other article so far.

Premier Scott Moe didn't say yesterday if they were women or men. Just two individuals were arrested. I think that was all the info the RCMP gave him at the time. I am sure more will come out. The press usually can get a little more out of the Police but it can at times be need to know.

Both of those people are Cree. I just looked up Pelican Narrows to see and it is a Cree settlement.

Canadian Press Outlet is a legit news source. It's main office is in Toronto. No worries.

I forget the number the news gave last night but it is something like 15,000 total have had to flee their homes in Saskatchewan and Manitoba.

Like I said. Don't worry. It would take me a few minutes to ferret out more information on the fires across Canada.

I am hoping these were just two isolated incidents.

I would think that anybody setting fires in forests would be political idealogues, and almost certainly on the left left side of thinking.

I can see an argument why natives would be left wing, but from what I've read here in Amercica, native indians actually broke hard for Trump last election compared to the previous. I really don't hear much about them, esepecially when it comes to politics, and I think that's mostly because they choose not to speak out much.

It's just shocking for me to hear that any natives would be doing such a thing, even if they have been taken by ideology.

Maybe that's just me falsely applying a positive stereotype where maybe it doens't belong anymore? It's not like American and Canadian Indians are the Amish. They're all on computers and smart phone and the internet today like everyone else, right? Especially the kids?


I'm tellin' ya... I think those Covid lockdowns have done some serious mental damage to society in general and we don't even realize yet what all that forced isolation has done and the price we have yet to pay for it.

That girl was 13 years old when they shut everything down including the schools and kept people inside their own houses with nothing to do but veg out on TV and the internet for a couple of years (after telling us it was only going to be 2 weeks). Who knows who she started listening to with all that forced free time.

I don't know but nothing more was said tonight. The girl and some friends could have been camping or partying and someone started a fire without thinking and away it went. The guys it could have been cigarette buts that started it. Even the girl. The authorities are always telling people not to throw buts around that aren't out because when it is this dry, that's it can take.

Hey, even Native Americans can be stupid in elections and vote against their own best interest. No, your politicians don't seem to court Native American voters in any election and it is rare that I even hear that from the US up here.

Like I said could just be dumb stuff. First Nations people are just people and do dumb stuff.

A lot of communities have computers and such to access the internet as well as adults and kids have smart phones. Just like everyone else. But the farther north you go in Canada, communities become more isolated and the only source of the internet might be the library or the schools.

I know they did. You never know and of course First Nations and Native Americans aren't perfect. The flipside is one of these fires maybe started out as a ceremonial thing that got out of hand.

Unless Scott Moe(premier) or the RCMP say more. We'll just have to wait and see.

I wasn't insinuating I thought anybody was perfect. Just strange to me that any native would do something to "make a statement" by burning forests down. The articles framed it as if the fires were started intentionally, but why should I believe them any more than I believe any of the other BS news out there? Like I said, every article seems to be just a cut and paste from that one article I linked above, so they were all saying the same thing.

But "Arson" charges have been mentioned specifically, and that's setting fire with intent and wouldn't be applied to accidental burning, unless those are trumped up charges.



I haven't found any new news on those two arrests, but they're looking for another guy who was setting cars and a garage on fire in Toronto now too...

Sorry if I implied that you were. Just there are stupid people everywhere.

Usually what you hear about First Nations is them trying to school firefighters on what the terrain is like in the fire zone. And that actually has gotten better. They look to First Nations find out what they know of the area and maybe how they dealt with wildfires in the past.

Press, nothing like being lazy. Just repeating. I've noticed at times things like this too.

No, if arson charges are being laid then the RCMP have evidence. Like an accelerant found near the scene. Gas can or witness interviews.

Toronto is really urban. The largest city in Canada and that could just be a crazy person. A pyromaniac.
