At a press conference on Friday, Premier Scott Moe stated that nearly all wildfires burning across the province are human-caused and in some cases, intentionally set. He says the RCMP have charged individuals in connection with major fires near Snowden and Yakwin, including the Ditch Fire threatening northern communities. As more than 30 communities remain under evacuation, Moe says officials are in daily talks with federal agencies about potential military support.
