You forgot to include the CBC news cameras pointing in the complete opposite direction interviewing a climate expert in front of a smokestack spewing water vapour...

I see the flat earthers are now certain the increase in forest fires in a very hot and dry season across the country is all due to arson even though there is no credible evidence to support this boneheaded idea!

And you wonder why I call it Agrisilly?

Plain Language Summary

Contemporary fire regimes of Canadian forests have been well documented based on forest fire records between the late 1950s to 1990s. Due to known limitations of fire datasets, an analysis of changes in fire-regime characteristics could not be easily undertaken. This paper presents fire regime trends nationally and within two zonation systems, the homogeneous fire regime zones and ecozones, for two time periods: 1959-2015 and 1980-2015. Nationally, trends in both area burned and number of large fires (≥ 200 ha) have increased significantly since 1959, which might be due to increases in lightning-caused fires. Human-caused fires, in contrast, have shown a decline. Results suggest that large fires have been getting larger over the last 57 years, and that the fire season has been starting approximately one week earlier and ending one week later. At the regional level, trends in fire regimes are variable across the country, with fewer significant trends. Area burned, number of large fires, and lightning-caused fires are increasing in most of western Canada, whereas human-caused fires are either stable or declining throughout the country. Overall, Canadian forests appear to be engaged in a trajectory towards more active fire regimes over the last half century.

Not going to disagree with you fully but here is the thing. You need to have your head up your ass if you can’t see a correlation between wildfires ignition points and proximity to reserves. Sure a lot of reserves are in areas prone to fires but in a normal year wildfires are more common around reserves. Maybe education is the key but I guess when you just don’t care and get a mad on for someone a fire is you’re go to.

Looked to me like they should have evacuated New York City as that smoke was some of the worst I have ever seen.

Changing climate does not ignite fires.But when they are results are getting worse every year because of forest conditions caused by a changing climate.

What were the Forrest fires like last year 🤔….. in Canada

In California? Worst ever.climate gauged taking in consideration the whole globe.not just what you see out your window.
