  6. We made the American news!!! (A Canadian)

  7. 🙋‍♀️ I live 1 hour west of Edmonton Alberta

    This passed winter we only got about 1/4 of the snow we needed

    Summer of 2022 was also a bad drought year

    So everything is absolutely dry with no moisture even in the ground

    And we where I am have had NO rain this year at all

    Some is supposed to come on Tuesday….. right

    No real rain is even in the forecast

    🙏🌧️🙏🌧️🙏🌧️🙏🌧️🙏

  8. First Nations have started a lot of these fires, they want to draw attention to themselves and cause trouble, but I think they are biting off more than they can chew, seeing as their communities are also burning.

  9. Jehovah is awesome. The hills melt in his presence. He perishes his enemies.

  10. The roof is on fire.

    Put it out.

  11. But we all know [because the MAGA GOPers have told us] that CLIMATE CHANGE DOESN’T EXIST. Sooo … what’s to worry about?

  12. Liberals lighting fires

  13. mismanaged forests

  14. No fatality….I guess he doesn’t think animals and plants are lives lost.

  15. They didn’t mention the evacuation of Cache Creek due to floods. We are feeling the climate change, and it sucks.

  16. All by design. This is government and officials showing their hatred for humans. They need to block the sun out so people LACK SUN. Its about the sun. NO discussion. of chemtrails they are dispersing in our skies covering the sun….they do not want people to have sun. Its about blocking the sun. Government and law enforcement are corrupt gargoyles who serve the underworld. This is your King Charles plan!!!!!

  17. We seem to have problems with fire every time there is an election. Funny how that goes.

  18. DO U THINK just MAYBE CHINA UNLEASHED the BUGS that have DESTROYED NORTH AMERICA ‘ S TREES ! oh that’s right F It UP JOE said they are GOOD PEOPLE, but Joe and his family have been receiving a CHECK from CHINA for a LONG TIME he might be BIAS !

  19. What ND and MN deserve for jacking 1 person 1 million in cash benefits. Burn.

  20. NBC…PURE TREASONOUS JOURNALISTIC 💩….THE ONLY THING CHOKING OUT CANADIANS 🇨🇦..IS OUR TREASONOUS CRIMINAL LIBERAL PARTY UNDER TURDEAU/CASTRO

  21. I, just wanna set the world on fire.

  22. Bummer… hey they can always get medically assisted suicide if they are sad. 🙄

  23. They are investing that it might be human caused!

  24. We’re doomed.

    And we have only our stupid, selfish selves to blame.

  25. The sad fact is it’ll only get worse. Eventually, forest fires will get so bad people will be drafted (forced, en masse) to fight catastrophic forest fires. Houses will by by the thousands. Insurance claims will go through the roof. Insurers could go bankrupt.
