              You make fire breaks around your yards? What is the fuel for the fires? Grass? Pine?

                Danielle Smith said more than 3/4 of the fires are man made. Are people really this careless these days.

                Wont be long before memories of Fort Mac emerge and people start calling the oil patch to blame.

                  Yes they are very careless. In my travels along highway 16 the other day, I saw 4 fires in a stretch of 150 km all started along the highway. Likely cigarette butts.

                  You know it is dry, why throw the stupid thing out? There is an ashtray for a reason. And if your vehicle doesn’t have one, a water bottle with some water in it would work just fine, no?

                    Started in a bush 1/4 and slough grass burns like gasoline Fire jumped over 200 yards at a time with the wind, roads had no affect.
