Nova Scotians who have been severely impacted by recent wildfires will receive financial support. The Province will provide $500 to every household required to evacuate because of recent fires in Halifax Regional Municipality and Shelburne County.
Volunteer firefighters will also receive support. The province will now pay the mileage for volunteer firefighters who need to travel to another community to fight fires, including wildfires. Volunteer fire depts can submit invoices to the provincial Emergency Management Office.
The Province is also declaring a provincewide burn ban because of the seriousness of the current fires. The ban will remain in place until June 25 unless the Province determines it can be lifted sooner. Anyone in violation can be subject to prosecution under the Forest Act.
