Wildfires in Western Canada have Maritimers mindful of warm, dry conditions
Some Cape Bretoners are wary of possible wildfires as the Maritimes faces a dry week. With intense wildfires still burning in Western Canada, a Cape Bretoner who experienced a similar disaster said on Tuesday that he knows first-hand what it feels like to be dealing with that kind of danger. 'For me, it was a life-changing experience,' said Rick Chezenko of Sydney, who lived through the Fort McMurray, Alta. wildfires in 2016. 'It's quite a terrifying endeavour.' With a stretch of warm, dry weather this week here in the Maritimes, Chezenko said what's happening in western Canada now is a reminder of how quickly these fires can spread. 'It has happened here before, and it could happen here again with the weather changing constantly,' Chezenko said. Just last week, a wildfire in Framboise, N.S. in Richmond County burned up 15 hectares and destroyed a vacant trailer. It was contained within 24 hours. Richmond County wildfire A wildfire in Richmond County, N.S. broke out Thursday, May 29, 2025. Deputy fire chief, Craig MacNeil, was part of a crew that responded from the Cape Breton Regional Municipality. He says this time of year it's important for both fire officials - and the public - to be mindful of the conditions. 'It's been worse in recent years, but I think it's due to the hurricane [Fiona in 2022] and the amount of fuel that is laying around the floor of the forest right now,' MacNeil said. Scott Tingley, manager of forest protection for Nova Scotia's Department of Natural Resources, said while most of the province is in a low-to-moderate forest fire risk right now - things can change quickly. 'We do expect that the risk will increase through the week,' Tingley said. 'Even though we might have had significant rainfall, those hot, dry days can result in what we call the 'fine fuels' - the twigs, any dry grass that is out there, all the lighter things - they dry out very quickly.' CTV Atlantic meteorologist Kalin Mitchell said a haze of wildfire smoke from the Prairies moved in aloft of the Maritimes over the weekend. He added that while the smoke is thin and high enough not to impact air quality here, more could arrive from the west Wednesday and Thursday. Chezenko, meanwhile, still has vivid memories of having to escape the Fort McMurray fires and said people should take precautions and follow the rules. 'I've seen how fast these fires can move, and it's crazy,' Chezenko said. The European Union's climate monitoring service said on Tuesday that smoke from the wildfires out west has reached some parts of northwestern Europe.

Cabin owner documents 'haunting' destruction of East Trout Lake, Sask., by wildfire
Nathan Pitka says it was a difficult journey up to East Trout Lake, Sask., to see the absolute devastation to the townsite. He had seen the drone footage released by the province last week that showed an overhead view of the flattened cabins, but it didn't fully prepare him for what it was like on the ground. "What we saw was haunting," Pitka said in an interview on Tuesday. "We were at a loss of words to what we saw. The entire community had been devastated. There wasn't a single structure standing in the community." Poor internet connection? CBC Lite is our low-bandwidth website. Pitka's extended family had five cabins at East Trout Lake, about 150 kilometres north of Prince Albert. He had gone up there last month and planned to spend the summer there, like usual. But when the evacuation order from the resort subdivision came on May 21, he packed up and left. WATCH | First look at devastation for East Trout Lake property owners: RAW | First look at devastation for East Trout Lake property owners 55 minutes ago Duration 1:39 Some property owners whose cabins and homes at East Trout Lake were burnt by the Shoe fire got a first-hand look at the charred rubble. One week later, Pitka got the news that the Shoe fire had burned through. That fire is still the biggest one burning in the province, last measured at more than 400,000 hectares as of Tuesday morning. Pitka has been staying in Saskatoon. On Saturday, he travelled up to East Trout Lake to document the devastation for himself and the other cabin owners. He shared the footage from his dashcam with CBC News, showing the journey up past Candle Lake and through the forest. "We thought it was important for ourselves, but also to let others in the community see the extent of the damage and devastation," Pitka said. He described areas of scorched forest with nothing but stumps. The sky was dark with smoke and fires were still smouldering in the ditches. Piles of metal and concrete are all that's left of the cabins. He took photos of each site to share with other cabin owners, so others wouldn't have to make the journey. Pitka said he and his family are grieving the destruction at East Trout Lake, which is "more than a location" — it's been the gathering site for his family for nearly 50 years. "I think I'm speaking for a lot of the residents that are out there," he said. "These have been multi-generational cabins and used year-round for connecting with the land and escaping the stresses of life." His family is working on how they're going to stay connected this year, without their beloved gathering place. On Tuesday, Saskatchewan Public Safety Agency (SPSA) president Marlo Pritchard took a moment at the start of his daily briefing to acknowledge the "fear of the unknown" for those waiting to see what will happen to their homes, and the loss that others have already experienced. "I really want to acknowledge and give my thoughts and prayers to those that have been impacted directly, or indirectly, of these fires," Pritchard said. "There's a number of individuals that have lost property; we've had a number of individuals evacuated … that are sitting, waiting to hear whether their property has been impacted." On Monday, parts of the Northern Village of Denare Beach were consumed by the Wolf fire as it encroached on the community, near the Manitoba border in the province's northeast. La Ronge and surrounding communities were evacuated Monday as the Pisew fire approached from the north. Evacuees reported scary, long journeys south in convoys through flames and smoke from two other fires in the area — the Shoe and Ditch02 fires. About 8,000 people have been evacuated from northern Saskatchewan due to wildfires so far, according to the SPSA. As of Tuesday afternoon, there were 21 wildfires burning in the province and the year-to-date total is 230, far above the five-year average of 132 fires for the same period.

Langside Street home burned 'within minutes,' witness says
A fire tore through a house on Langside Street, between Portage and Ellice avenues in central Winnipeg, within a matter of minutes on Tuesday afternoon, according to a witness. Fire crews were seen on site fighting the blaze around 2 p.m. Tuesday. Witness Joel Johnston said he was playing at a nearby park with his nephew when they noticed the smoke. He called the fire department as soon as he saw the smoke and started knocking on doors along Langside to warn others, he said. Johnston told CBC News on Tuesday he saw at least two people inside the building, and saw one climbing out of a window covered in soot. "It was pretty quick. It was within minutes. The smoke was like a fog, and then it turned into black billowy smoke within minutes," said Johnston. "The flames went from the back to the front of the house within minutes."
