Thank you to the first responders who are doing everything they can to tackle these fires and help folks safely evacuate as needed.
My heart goes out to everyone impacted.
I want you to know that the federal government is continuing to follow the wildfires closely—and we are ready to help should the province require federal assistance.
There is a province-wide fire ban and I encourage everyone to follow it. It is so dry out there, folks.
In case you have friends and loved ones impacted by the fire:
The Canada Games Centre at 26 Thomas Raddall Drive, Black Point and Area Community Centre at 8579 St Margarets Bay Road, and the Beaver Bank Kinsac Community Centre | 1583 Beaver Bank Road are open as comfort centres until further notice.
