"This is Ravi Parmar, B.C.’s Minister of Forests. Every photograph that follows is happening in British Columbia right now."
Much of this story we are sharing are from another page. But,
In our opinion...
All of Canada needs to be better prepared.
MORE DOMESTIC WATER BOMBERS, NOT BOMBS, to prevent out of control fires. Provinces, and countries, need water bomb planes to put them out (just to name one thing needed to get climate change devastation under control). And not just BC of course. We should engage in international help and help each other. A year ago international firefighters with water bombers offered to help, Trudeau turned them down. National security he stated. Well, theses fires are also National security and our friendly countries we should take their offers to help. Money needs to be invested in water planes.
From another post:
"Families are being evacuated. Homes, farms, businesses and livelihoods are being destroyed. Animals are being displaced. Entire communities are watching years of their lives disappear in flames. Livelihoods are being horrifically destroyed as we speak.
The government keeps talking about wildfire prevention, but the results speak for themselves.
And Canadians deserve answers about what happens after these forests burn. B.C. has a system for salvaging fire-damaged Crown timber.
Why isn’t preventing the destruction of these forests treated with the same urgency as profiting from what remains after they burn?
These aren’t statistics on a government report. These are people’s homes, farms, animals and lives.
Stop managing the aftermath. Start protecting the forests."

In our opinion: The devastation of domestic and wildlife is unfathomable. Getting horses and pets out, the wildlife that can't escape.....it's unfathomable for us humans to comprehend. Photos barely show the terror, the pain.
