Fires getting out of hand in Canada - three provinces are struggling with fires and not enough firefighters. We are even receiving a hand from Australia and New Zealand.

Our thoughts are with you all Melissa, rest assured that if you have Australian and New Zealand firefighters helping out, you are in good hands, they are among the best in the world at what they do and are very experienced. We hold a lot of faith in them ;)

Carolyn | 9868 comments That sounds really bad Melissa. Are any towns threatened by the fires or is it mostly forest burning?

It is starting to make its way to towns in a couple of provinces - Saskatchewan, Alberta and BC. The biggest one near me is 20,000 hectares.
Very grateful for Australian and Kiwi firefighters coming in to help.

Just go into "edit profile" on your page then down to the box where you tell about yourself. Copy and paste NetGalley's links:)
