The 2017 and 2018 wildfire seasons were the worst in British Columbia's history. The 2017 fires burned an area twice as large as Prince Edward Island and displaced over 65,000 people. The 2018 fires surpassed this record by burning 2,000 hectares more than the 2017 fires.

However, Canada had its worst wildfire season on record in 2023 when over 42m acres (17.3m hectares) burned, an area larger than all of England and more than double the previous record.

We've been in BC since 1981 and trust me, it's getting worse.
