Look up "Fire Shooting drones"....it's supposedly a fire fighting tool, but it's being used to start all these fires in Canada and US.....Did you know that most fires in the World are Arsons? And most arsonists are firefighters.....

Intentional!

Canada won't do controlled burns,but will send Ukraine billions of $$$$$$

I've got a fever and the only cure is more tariffs.

Sad to live in a world where theres some who doesn't even think twice about hurting themselves and us regardless of any cost
@
Privately managed forests don’t burn as well their neglected state managed forests.
Green land management practices guarantee intense bush fires.
@
Trying to burn you out same as they did to Australia 🇦🇺 but we are still here.Look to Hawaii and the Island they torched.
@
Tough times for Canadians
@
They leave it much longer the US should invade since they clearly cant protect their citizens
@
And Trump threatens Canada with more tariffs over wildfire smoke.
@
Canada is exporting smoke to US. Trump will impose 20% duty. He wants America to produce its own pollution

Nick Shirley? Where are you? Lightening is striking and it ain't our Dear Lord.

Maps online show areas subjected to wildfires during multiple years.
Surprising that any forested areas still exist
@
Nothing wild about them! 🙄🙄🙄
@
Does Canada take care of their Forest properly?
@
My guess is they dont do controlled burns. They probably shouldve figured this out by now.

It’s wild how far that smoke travels. You can practically feel the air change here even when the fires are thousands of miles away. Really makes you wonder how much longer we can expect these seasons to get more intense every year. Hope the crews on the ground stay safe.

Morning, everyone. It’s heartbreaking to see those smoke plumes reaching so far south; it really shows how connected we all are. I'm thinking of everyone facing evacuations today. How are you all holding up, and is the air quality affecting your area?
