Effective at 12 p.m. PDT on Thursday, May 7, Category 1, Category 2, and Category 3 open fires are prohibited across the Coastal Fire Centre. The exception is the Haida Gwaii Forest District, where Category 1 campfires are permitted.

These measures are being taken to reduce the risk of human-caused wildfires associated with open burning activities.

This prohibition will remain in place until October 31, 2026, or until it is rescinded.

Always check with your local government before burning, as they may have their own prohibitions in place.

Your responded to a fire in the bush up at the end of Malone Road today. We’d like to thank the many residents and local neighbours that called to let us know about the fire, which allowed for a fast response and control of the spread.

We’d also like to thank our colleagues at BC Wildfire Service for their support.

We would ask that when people see smoke or something of concern like this situation to please dial 911 as our fire hall is not manned and precious moments are lost if you call there and leave a message.

Thank you for working together to keep our community safe!
