@AmazingZoltan I respect your journalism - you have done excellent work. Itโs a valid question if drastic shift in forest and fire management policy in Ontario has had consequences. Like it or not, there was a shift.
@UnacceptableN My friend, look to logic, reason, and truth. In this case, a massive storm front dropped a swath of dry lightning across a massive area. Sometimes nature gives us beautiful geometric patterns.
@PaulMSmithphoto Trump reacted to Carney blaming the US for not fighting climate change. Trump did not use the word โrakeโ. Also you make is incredibly misleading.
@PaulMSmithphoto The area of the fires was extensively managed and is accessible because of logging and other uses. The logging industry and government management have decayed.
@jabo_vancouver The boreal varies by latitude. Itโs southern band was managed extensively for decades. Like it or not, logging and aggressive fire supression were long standing policies. Both have decayed.
@PaulMSmithphoto That is an interesting picture of a person standing in a swamp. Here is a map of the fire locations - they occurred in areas of mixed use, all with extensive histories of forest management and fire supression. Logging has dwindled, and organized fire management is decaying.
@FrankieSaysNews The boreal forest varies widely by latitude. The southern band was managed extensively for decades through logging and fire suppression. The new fires occurred in areas of cottages, provincial parks, and crown land - all accessible with extensive logging histories.
@brent_bellamy The fires occurred in areas of mixed use with extensive histories of logging and fire suppression. Like it or not, that was a standing policy for many decades and it shifted drastically over the last two decades. Organized fire suppression is decaying.
