Getting flashbacks to the orange skies in SF a few years ago.

- This is all stemming from Central Canada, where wildfires are burning in the provinces of Ontario and Quebec.
- In total there are 211 reported wildfires burning in these two provinces, with 145 of them considered "out of control".
- These fires started because of unseasonable hot and dry conditions, and have already forced 10,000 residents to evacuate their homes in Quebec.

An event that takes place in another country can have major impacts and implications on our own. We are all in this thing together. Let's get along and work together to figure things out. The environment is a great place to start.
