Was going to go to Jasper next week on vacation. This is very sad. Was such a nice place. Hope they can rebuild the town and the people can return as soon as possible.

Since 2019, the UCP has gutted Alberta's fire fighting capability by a whopping $30-million, roughly a 25% reduction. The UCP eliminated Alberta's elite wildfire-fighting crew of 63 firefighters stationed across the province. The program had been in service for over 40 years. The UCP made the cuts and ignored warnings from experienced firefighters. The UCP is leading Alberta into literal disaster.

This is devastating, Jasper is such a beautiful place. The bright side is that neither the national park nor the whole town were lost. My thoughts are with everyone affected by this tragedy.
