We need to spend more on making fire breaks and roads in these areas global warming is only gonna make this happen more often.

Sad to see this happen. I spent a summer in Jasper 20 years ago. There's nothing evil about it. It's mother nature. Lightning strike. Cripe people have to create conspiracy theories about everything.

I was there last year, so sad, it was such a beautiful place

[PamelaPhillips-edsl]

Grumpy Grandpa here. Damn mother nature can be a monster. Hopefully everybody's okay. 😟

Bloomberg's investor readers are smiling with glee watching the devastation of prime real estate available at firesale ( intended) prices . I wonder how the fire started ? Would be curious to see the first bidders on this property .

west coast people - the trauma takes a while to heal. To watch our planet burn, our homes gone, the animals, memories remain. I take a few minutes a day to thank Mother Earth. we are the only inhabitants that need clothing & shoes to survive. We will do our best to recover what we can, to help the Land heal. Nature is talking to us all.

I’m so sorry to all the people who’ve lost most everything! 😢
I’m having a MOST DIFFICULT time believing the narrative on these so called wildfires. I call BS!

[Mediocre_JT]

Have no worries, this is temporary. God is creating a new heaven for us, we don't have much time left on this earth, so please help spend this time helping others find God so they don't miss out on the glory of the Lord and the blessings to come. God bless you all.

WILDPHYRES has lots more on this and all the rest caused by similar sinister forces

[ToxiCom-]

Strange how all the structures cremated down to white ash and metals incinerated, but so so many trees still standing. How is this called a "forest" fire when only the forest remains?

Those Directed Energy Weapons are pretty much unstoppable. World leadership is at an all time low as far as working for the people.

[GlobalPower]

Now you see what happens when I try and survive out in the mountains 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[watchtheirhands]

these fires are becoming more and more intelligent. able to miraculously change direction on a dime. it's almost as if they are being controlled.

[jenniferfisher]

These comments give me hope. Mass awakening to the evil.

Welcome to Clownada, the future is doomed. Roads full of potholes. Kids learning in the gyms facilities. Hospitals always overcrowded (emergency rooms waiting time is longer than FJT’s wife’s mileage 😂).
Taxes in the cloud 9 (heard people have to pay taxes to move out of the country, soon 😂).
The size of government growing up with the speed of light 😂, all day debating, deciding how ti raise the taxes, how to spend the budget, without doing nothing else 😂
Again, welcome to Clownada 😂
My house, my car paid off long ago. I don’t care.
God bless my fellow Canadians ❤
