Thousands of people in Western Canada remain displaced from their homes as wildfires threaten their communities, triggering evacuation orders and alerts.
And just north of Cranberry Portage, Man., an out-of-control wildfire measuring 316 square kilometres has forced the area’s roughly 500-plus locals to flee their homes. Mayor Rob Fraser issued a plea for residents not to attempt returning to their homes during the Mounties’ absence.
