How do I prepare for a wildfire?

We have a full blog with resources and information on how to prepare for a wildfire, including putting together your go-kit, what to do in case of mass evacuation and what to do if you’re under Provincial Evacuation Orders. Read the full blog post here.

How do I stay informed on the latest developments related to the wildfire?

As evacuation orders are in effect for a number of areas throughout BC, we encourage everyone to visit Emergency Info BC for the most up-to-date information. Outside of traditional news sources and social media, the following links may also provide helpful updates on the status of various new and ongoing wildfires:

• Current Wildfire Status
• BC Wildfire Services
