Fire activity worsened in Alberta's Jasper National Park on Wednesday, July 24, 2024.
As the afternoon progressed, the sky at the park gates some 50-kilometres east of the Jasper townsite turned dark orange and ash began raining down.
Global News reporter Lisa MacGregor reports from the area, where late in the afternoon, Parks Canada announced due to significant fire activity and forecasted strong winds, first responders will start to be relocated to Hinton. Parks Canada said given the intensity of fire behaviour being observed, the decision has been made to limit the number of responders exposed to this risk.
Firefighting personnel, aircraft and a few incident command staff will remain in the town of Jasper and continue efforts to protect the town.

Disappointed Global News has their reporter working in those conditions with no personal protective equipment! While I appreciate the news update it shouldn't come at the cost of someone else's health and safety. Yes, frontline reporting has hazards but I can't help feeling embarrassed to see her out there as she's reporting on fire fighters being evacuated. Not cool.

After cutting their wildfire budget from $130M in 2017 to $100M, eliminating the 63-man Aerial Rapattack Team, closing 30 of Alberta’s 127 Wildfire Lookout Towers & cutting fire training, Alberta is now preparing to ask the fed gov for Armed Forces help to fight their wildfires -

Prayers go out to all first responders and people who have suffered losses. It’s time we take action to reduce the risk of towns burning down, there are steps we can take immediately such as creating a fire line around vulnerable communities. We can cut down the trees that catch fire easily and plant more fire resistant trees in their place like Ash, maple and Oak.

Just remember the UCP cut the provincial firefighting budget by $30 million since 2019. Might not have changed this situation but more $ = more equipment, resources and manpower. If this is the new norm for summer time Alberta and BC need to up their funding

@user-pt1cs4lq7f 2 месяца назад

Apparently they did that in 2017. When the NDP were in power according to another post. Not sure which is true but I'm trying to add context for people to fact check for themselves.

@5fingerdpunchfan 2 месяца назад

Notley cut the budget by $15 million in 2016. After the fort Mac fire they added an additional $30 million to offset the previous cut and increase funding. Since 2018 the annual amount allocated has dropped from $130 to $100 million. Budget info can be found in the Edmonton journal and Edmonton sun. I’m sure there are similar articles and info for other news sources.

I want some one to explain to me what causes these fires ? We were there last Saturday & there was no rain of lightening ! Just dried & high temp & cool at night, In Florida, we have rain, thundering, tornados, hurricanes but there is no gov prohibitions. What I think is that the manufacturing of woods which is large in these provinces create the fires to obtain their wood tree. I saw about 100 trucks carrying wood in BC & Alberta too.

@TalairanPerigord 2 месяца назад
