Update! The fire has reached jasper on both sides. The petro Canada blew up. They pulled out emergency crews cause it was to hot. My prediction is jasper is gone unless rain comes.
-
Jasper, a whole town and countless wildlife, what a tragedy
-
Why didn't all our carbon tax money stop this fire.😢😢
-
No ones talking about the Pine Beetle problem the park has had for a long time which surely was a contributing factor along with dry hot conditions, wind, ect. Just sad. Our favorite vacation spot. Im sad for everyone who called that town home.
-
Jasper is burned to the ground. The town is gone. A great loss for all Canadians.
-
Saw online an annoymous post from a firefighter there ...70% of Jasper is destoryed ( apparently ) keep Jasper in your prayers😢
-
Truly devastating and incredibly sad. I hope the firefighters are safe and the fire settles soon.

In 2018 I hiked up the gondola mountain, looking down and across the town site and surrounding area I was astonished to see vast tracks of dead forest caused by pine beetle infestation...my impression then was all it's going to take is a lightening strike to set this off....and it did.
-
Every forest fire & especially those that affect towns/cities/homes are devastating. Jasper will get alot more funding to rebuild than Lytton did!
-
Devastating
-
45 minutes, but close enough
-
So, your report is that you don’t know anything. Marvellous. Thanks.
-
There should be some precautions that should be put into place around major populated areas that have massive woodlands, crops, etc. Therefore things like this don't happen as often anymore, especially when it's gotten as hot as it was these last couple of weeks.
-
Why is the damage unknown????!!
-
Worked in that wonderful town and Park back in the mid 80s wonderful Park and town 😢
-
😂😂No water planes ??? How many days in a row did the plane stay grounded?
-
Why aren’t we getting updates?! I can’t find any new info as of last night…
-

-
