Thinking of everyone in Manitoba facing the threat of wildfires.

My team is working to support the Manitoba government, and we will be deploying additional crews and resources from the #BCWildfireService to support their response and protect communities.

We’ve got your back.

BC faced its fourth largest wildfire season in 2024, with over 1.08 million hectares burned - and we experience an average of 1,600 #wildfires per year.

The #BCWildfireService continues to respond to a cluster of wildfires approximately 30 kilometres southwest of Dawson Creek.

Warm, dry & windy conditions have led to increased fire activity on wildfire G70192, which has merged with G70195.

The 🔥 is estimated at 35 hectares.

Important update about #BCWildfires 🚨

A mix of warm, dry conditions and strong winds has the potential to drive up wildfire risk across much of southern BC.

The #BCWildfireService is urging people to postpone any open burning and to use extra caution in the days ahead.

Based on weather conditions, the #BCWildfireService are urging all to not conduct any open burning on May 1 & 2.

High temperatures, low humidity & windy conditions - especially in the Cariboo & Kamloops Fire Centres - will contribute to elevated fire danger.

#BCWildfire

In #Merritt and across BC, new #BCWildfireService recruits are lacing up their boots and heading into training camps.

Wish these future wildfire heroes luck, strength, and a ton of energy.

We’ve got your back—go get it!
