Flee or Evacuate?
Sensationalism is what it's all about.

Not caused by lightning you forgot that

[vovin]

It is amazing that Vancouver even remembers that Kamloops even exists

[Eveever]

So many evacuations in Canada. Where are all these people going?

Well, they don’t fight fires anymore. Just a bunch of red shirts. don’t know what they’re doing we used to fight for his 24 hours a day. I’ve never seen so many out-of-control fires time to let the loggers take over and oh yeah, it was hot back then too.

I watched this 4 times and put CC on. It went from "700 hectares Saturday to 26 hectares." OMG that is sooo out of control. This is what you call journalism? You make it sound like it has grown a huge amount since Saturday when if what you are reporting is accurate it has shrunk to less than 4% of what it was on Saturday.

Crazy flooding all over NA? Worst fires ever? Tornadoes? Weather weapons?

When i lived out that way, I went through Kamloops in years when they had big fires. It was always pretty smoky and bad.

Send new immigrants and refugees to fight the fires.

Where's the Canadian news reporters?

[brucemitchell]

Keep that fear train rolling CTV, or mr Dressup won't give you anymore climate change checks! 😂

[islandaerial]

Build your McMansion in a forest. What could go wrong? Oh wait...

[baldbollocks]

Make sure they don't send in the women firefighters like Ontario.
