    I have visited the beautiful community of Jasper and I am extremely heartbroken. I know it will return over time, but it is very sad. 💔

    I live in Edmonton, and was planning to go there next week for vacation. We go there almost every year. Hope they can rebuild as soon as possible and that the people who live there can return.

    Is another 15-minute city planned for Jasper? Where there are such plans, the areas seem to curiously burn down.
  • So sad to see this happen in one of the most beautiful places on earth.

    I have been trying to get you all in media to call them what they are.. Firestorms.. People are taken unaware, thinking its just a wildfire and not a fast moving firestorm.
  • Banff is considered the 'jewel', but Jasper is in our hearts as well. Think of it this way, Banff is the worldly attraction, Jasper was more for us locals.

    Horrific, was a beautiful place full of wildlife.
  • just so happens it was caught on camera - who started the "vortex mega fire" who gets the land - and who bet on this on the stock market?
  • I’m so sorry , this is an attack! These are not natural fires! Car rims were burned just like in Lahaina! My prayers for everyone and their loved ones! This is not fair
