CRANBROOK, B.C. — Canadian federal, provincial and territorial forest ministers have signed on to a national strategy that they say aims to raise awareness of wildfire risks across the country.
The plan aims to contribute to a national goal that by next year 60 per cent of Canadians in areas of high fire risk are aware of those dangers, and half of Canadians will have taken concrete actions to better respond to climate change. The strategy says by 2025 all jurisdictions will"establish dedicated prevention and mitigation governance structures" and have targeted wildfire training across industries and communities.
