Global National: June 5, 2023 | Canada projected to have worst year of wildfire destruction
On this episode: Canada is experiencing the worst spring wildfire season in its history, raising concerns about whether the federal government has the necessary resources to extinguish the hundreds of wildfires raging across the country.
Mike Armstrong looks at what's burning in several provinces, including how one village has been completely wiped out. Meanwhile, Eric Sorensen explains what's being done now to douse the flames, and how experts believe the response needs to improve.
Tensions between the U.S. and China are escalating following a dangerously close encounter between the two countries' warships in the Taiwan Strait. Mackenzie Gray reports from the HMCS Montréal with a look at the strong show of force by Canada and other western countries in the East China Sea, the growing fears China could invade Taiwan, when the Pentagon believes such an attack could happen, and how the West might respond.
The Russian government has released footage suggesting it thwarted a major Ukrainian offensive. Redmond Shannon explains the Ukrainian government's cryptic response to the claim, as Ukraine makes apparent gains near the destroyed city of Bakhmut.
Many Canadians are struggling to afford a home and industry experts warn the need for affordable housing is quickly outpacing possible solutions. As Mike Drolet explains, one Guelph, Ont. startup is pushing an idea that can be found right in backyards.
Plus, Apple has unveiled Vision Pro, its much-anticipated headset which blends the virtual world into reality, for a hefty price tag of about $5,000. Jeff Semple reports on the various uses for VR, and why there are doubts about how successful Apple's device will be.

I’m praying for any Canadian that this affected.God Bless you and your families, Most times it amazes me greatly how I moved from an average lifestyle to earning over $63k per month, Utter shock is the word. I have understood a lot in the past few years that there are lots of opportunities in the financial market. The only thing is to know where to invest.
I agree with you and I believe that the secret to financial stability is having the right investment ideas to enable you earn more money, I don’t know who agrees with me but either way I recommend either real estate or bitcoin and stocks.
I keep wondering how people earn money in financial markets, i tried trading bitcoin on my own made a huge loss and now I'm scared of investing more.
@@bjoe631 That won't bother you if you trade with a professional like *Mr Gary Mason Brooks* my coach, you may have come across him on interviews relating to bitcoin and stocks. He trades, manage trading account and offer mentorship program for clients who wish to become professional investors.
You allow people to trade for you? that's interesting, I would love to learn, hope it’s safe...?
Wow I can't believe you guys are discussing about Gary Mason Brooks , I once met him at a conference in California 2019, just before the pandemic. I can testify that he’s very good in trading..Highly recommended
Amazing how multiple fires so far apart started all at once on sunny days.
Satellite imagery indicates it's the work of one person, or group.
@gordonmichaels600 Exactly 👏👏
I'm sure this was intentionally done they want to kill off people
@@UndividedNetwork34 of course they doing this they want to kill off people
Liberal employees.
Never in my 44 years have I ever seen anything like this in Ontario. I am calling arson! It was not dry on the weekend in Northern Ontario. We were camping.
And in 44 years do you think greenhouse gases contribute zero to this problem?
GD greenhouse gasses and their lighters lol
Calm down Karen
Audrey Elaine Dunham is just one, and she's part of a network.
My heart is alread aching for the wildlife, and farm animals left to suffer. God protect them.
I’m down here in NY and we have air quality warnings from these fires, all of outside smells like smoke, hospitals are expecting an increase of respiratory related visits, schools have canceled after school sports etc etc Stay safe everyone!

@@justincadieux1535 That’s a pretty valid point
People in Canada charged for arson in setting forest fires this spring 1) Man charged with 6 counts of arson in Saskatchewan 2) RCMP say arson behind 29 Okinagan wildfires during the last 4 years. 3) Police in Nova Scotia report 2 cases of arson in the New Glasgow area 4) Smokey Lake area man facing 23 counts of arson in multiple BC wildfires this spring. 5) Kamloops women accused of arson in multiple BC wildfires this spring 6) Man charged with arson in connection with nearly 30 fires across Saskatchewan. 7) ALL OF SOUTHEAST QUEBEC CATCHING FIRE AT THE SAME TIME? How do that many fires all start at the same time across an ENTIRE PROVINCE?!! 8) Climate change has a name and it is "Audrey Elaine Dunham". She has been charged with 32 counts of arson in Alberta this spring. COULD THIS BE ECO TERRORISTS WHO WANT TO GIVE THEIR CLIMATE CHANGE AGENDA A BOOST!! ARSON IS NOT CLIMATE CHANGE

@@winstonsmith935 YES! The New Jerusalem is on the horizon! "From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand." Matthew 4:17! Time is winding up! HALLELUJAH! 🙏🏼🙌🏼💞✝️❤️✝️
@@SOULRELIEF22 lol...been waiting for the rapture huh?
@@EricArrow JESUS' last message to us... "He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, LORD Jesus." Revelation 22:20! I was atheist 50 years ago. FATHER GOD sent HOLY GHOST to touch me on CHRISTMAS EVE, when I asked Him in the name of JESUS! I awoke on CHRISTMAS MORNING, BORN AGAIN! HALLELUJAH! 🙏🏼🙌🏼💞✝️❤️ So naturally I thought the LORD was returning immediately, and I got saved just in time! NOW I understand that eternity is on ANOTHER time scale. Peter wrote about people like you LONG ago! "Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts; And saying, Where is the promise of His coming? for since the father's fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation. For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth, standing out of the water and in the water: Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished: But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men. But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slack, concerning His promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to usward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance." 2 Peter 3:8-9! REPENT AND RECEIVE JESUS AS YOUR LORD AND SAVIOUR TO HAVE YOUR NAME SECURED IN HIS BOOK OF LIFE! "AND WHOSOEVER WAS NOT FOUND WRITTEN IN THE BOOK OF LIFE WAS CAST INTO THE LAKE OF FIRE." REVELATION 20:15! TIME IS WINDING UP.
Prayers going up for the family in Canada. Amen.
Prayers don't work. Nobody's been home for over 2,000 years.
@@joevarga5982 Yes, prayers do get answered, if you believe in God and are NOT living a sinful life!! When you get real with God, He will get real with you! Rapture is about to happen! I would suggest you ask God for forgiveness tonight, before it is too late! You don't want to get left behind with satan!! After the rapture happens, there will be 7 final years of hell like there has never been before on earth!! You don't want to be here for that! So, get tight with God, Jesus, and He will send you His Spirit, The Holy Spirit to live inside you. His Spirit living inside of you will guide you in your daily walk with Him. People need God and His Spirit as well as Jesus Christ, His Son. Without God, Jesus and The Holy Spirit, people will eventually fall into doom, destruction and hell. Not a pretty picture!
Canadians set the fires
@@owenjenkins5309 Why would they do that??
@Quiet-Time-With-JESUS Arsonists set fires in Australia, US Pacific Northwest and now Canada; although you won't hear that on msm. Some are anarchists and just want chaos and destruction, some believe that if they set fires msm will blame global warming and it will bring an end to the industrial world and fossil fuels. So crazy to destroy the ecosystems that some are trying to protect, but in their minds the ends justify the means. When I talked about the forest fires in the Pacific NW and the arsonists who were arrested, I was threated. Two have been arrested in Canada, but I'm sure many charges will be dropped. I lost count of the number of fires in Canada, but more than two are responsible. Satellite surveillance showed many fires starting simultaneously across wide areas so they were coordinated and set deliberately.
I live in Buffalo, NY, and I live close to Canada, and it is very foggy outside when I came out of school, it was not just only foggy but it was very smokey and it smells like it.
Again, I must apologize about our public servants playing with matches... my latest uploahd you should show to your authorities and hold the Canadian gov accountable.
I'm Im the roc right next to y'all And I can smell it as well.
Yes! I live near Buffalo and had no clue these fires were happening but the smell and the “fog” is crazy!
The air quality smoke came here at 2pm and my class was very confused then the teacher and one of the classmates said it’s the 400 wildfire from Canada , the class was like “I don’t want to die” something like that , my home is like 10min away and I was holding my mask with my sleeves . I hope for those that lives in nyc , ny , Canada or any place that has the smoke have a great health and praying the smoke stop.
Canada has gone for international assistance in a plea to different countries to send their fire crews experienced in fighting forest fires along with relevant equipment. Small towns in the northern and remote areas of our provinces are impacted. Soon these fires will start spreading south into our cities like Toronto (ON), Ottawa (ON), Victoria (BC), Sydney (NS), Montreal(QC). Canada is definitely going to need to have a paramilitary forest fire force.
And still they refuse to use what works, bring back the Mars water bombers!!!!!!!!!!!!!
why they don't clean the forest ? communists are against it so they are facilitators to the fire
France is sending help too,waiting to hear on others.
I'm up here by Sauble Beach and there is a very revelant smoke layer up here, yet idiots coming to Beach areas are still lighting party bonfires, yet we have Fire bans as well as water bans
These fires definitely won’t burn into major cities 😂
Hope they can control the fire soon. Hope everyone is safe😢
It's like 200 fires. And they aren't even trying to fight most of them, just the ones threatening communities.
There was satellite view showing fires starting in unison in various locations. Seems very contrived.
I thought the same when Australia got hit in 2020. What a 'coincidence,; so many fires all of a sudden all over the place! Here in my United States: what a 'coincidence' so many food factory fires all of a sudden all over the place! Right when there's a contrived fertilizer and the mass culling of agriculture animals too. What a shame. Good thing Billionaires have been buying up farms and pushing fake food/MRNA'ing real food into toxicity. What ever would we do without 'good' leaders?
How the heck does starting another fire help stop a bigger fire just put the fire out tf
You never heard of fighting fire with fire?
I had track and field today and it was so Smokey it was stinging my eyes a little at some points. I’m really scared I hope all my family and friends will be okay
Never mind the dog Bernardo, what about the former spouse Karla Homolka who's not even in prison and probably out there living high off the hog?
My thoughts exactly
She's been allowed to read to school children. Look into it...
@@user-dl7um5eq2z ...and in Canada, we can't be bothered with truly punitive measures for either
While in so called prison she graduated from a university - paid by taxpayers - this murderer maried one of her admirers, had children, lived in Caribbean then moved back to Canada Montreal where she leads suburban life. Of course she changed her looks, but I remember some neighbours were not too happy. She never paid the price for kidnapping, torturing, raping and murdering three girls including her sister. Even her prison was just a typical house for a couple of women, set up like normal family home. She lived there had parties... we paid for all her rewards. There is NO justice in Canada at least in this case
She has a child believe it or not, she lives in Quebec and got married and everything.
Thank you to all the other countries sending us help ❤❤❤ bless you
Preplanned? I'm pretty suspicious. Why are a lot of "food processing" places also getting burnt?
_Why are a lot of "food processing" places also getting burnt?_ Beware of confirmation bias. Are such places actually having fires more often now? One would need to look at long-term data to confirm. As far as I'm aware, no one has done such a comparative analysis.
Why dont we stop immigration for a couple years
blame the liberals for being tunnel visioned for their own wallets and climate change (seasons) agenda, but its ok to support bombing oil pipelines and have justin trudeau travel everywhere, Of justins 127,147 kilometres of air travel since last June, 50,680 kilometres - about 40 per cent - took place in just the past seven weeks.i wonder how much he paid his actors to light those fires to support his climate change agenda (allegedly)? watching a time lapse east of hudsons bay shows no clouds but fires spring up like its all set at once over many many miles, i have never seen anything like it altho hsitorically in canada a bunch of liberal environmentalists like to burn the forests , like that oen lady who got charged with setting 32 fires but was slapped on the wrist , whats wrong with that picture?
It is so bad that I am in Connecticut America. The air is dry
I’m in central Jersey and it’s pretty bad
I have never heard of using fire to fight a wildfire!? prayers go out to Eastern Canada 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 🇨🇦❤🇨🇦
Yea it’s called a controlled burn
Controlled burns have been used for many decades to control wildfires. They were more common before aerial firefighting was introduced, but they are still used every year.
Stay safe everyone 🥺❤️ praying for everyone's safety and health. Hope this gets taken care of quick. Even here in western NY were hurting!!
Thank you so much! Stay safe too🥺❤️
Mate, I’m around Trenton and it’s bad
@@BennyDV9 how bad?
@@alexb7641 well it’s cleared up now, but when it was here you could imagine it as a yellowish foggy day all day long and the constant smell of smoke. It would have been a nice clear day is it wasn’t for the smoke. I couldn’t even see the sun when it was setting, and when I did see the sun during the day, it was red. That’s basically the gist, other than that the day went as usual
@@BennyDV9 Oh I can imagine lol. I live in the PNW half the seaboard was a fire a few years ago. We have a season for it. You’d think the sky was falling over there reading the news lol.
Woke up to an Orange Sun today in western Massachusetts - and the smoke was thick here.

I am from nyc and the air is horrible cause of the fire in Canada I really hope everything gets better to all the places it is effecting especially Canada 🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️ ( not even a masked can help and my eyes actually hurt, and when I was in school it looked so yellow outside we were not aloud to go outside it got so bad every class room had to have the windows locked and ac on cause it smelled horrible and kids started getting dizzy and not feel good , to the point the smoke got in the school and after class every kid had to wear a mask)
So sorry for you. Smoke rises, so stay in the subways. Maybe you're complaint can be heard there. See how many sub slugs care. I did not create your situation.
Idk why the Prime Minister is talking about hurricanes... Canada has had like 30 Cat 1 hurricanes and 2 Cat 2 hurricanes. They rarely get hit by any major hurricane and if they do, they are little baby ones. 'The strongest hurricane to make landfall in Canada was Hurricane Ginny of 1963,[2] which had winds of 105 mph (169 km/h) and a minimum pressure of 948 millibars (28.0 inHg), making it a Category 2 hurricane at the time of its landfall near Yarmouth, Nova Scotia." That's like a Tuesday in the south US.
I agree with you , you don't know
We should probably tax us some more
But who's gonna tax the trees for releasing all that carbon?
Please don't post that. Trudeau might see it and decide to add a third carbon tax.
@@samg8012 No 'might' about it. Carbon tax going up July 1. And they have already threatened/promised more
I’m in NY and the smoke was so bad and thick
still is
We all need to work together globally to fight these fires. Canada had 3 million hectares burnt this year alone (by may) and Australia had 24 million hectares burnt in 2019 (yes, not a typo, 24 MILLION, not 2.4 million!!!) We need to focus all of our global efforts and buying and funding fire fighters (not just volunteers) and purchasing water bombers that are shared between Canada and Australia... the only way is working together, not going alone.
Yes Michael Knowles was talking about this.Much worse has happened.
"The Earth is majorly overpopulated and Canada has the most unused space. Also Canada blocks a path to lands. Burn most of it to create homes and access. Call it an accident. Lesser of two evils."
Canadians set the fires
People who live there have reported finding fire boxes. It would not surprise me if they were dumping gas upon these fires.🧐🤔
One of my ex's was one of the few to survive the Bernardos. Her son came home early from camp, saw what was happening ran next door for help.
The videos the incompetent police missed in the search showed Karla was the one who wanted to kill. Bernardo was the Scarborough serial rapist before he met her but didn't kill. He should be in maximum but Karla was given medium and released. Where was the outrage then??? Double standards based on gender.

They are a small company whose videos I've been watching the past couple of years and all their tiny homes are sweet! . They have the Amish men building for them and WOW they are beautiful with such great layouts and craftsmanship you can't beat. They come complete with small kitchen& bath, with living room/bedroom $16,000us and fully off grid for $35,000us, with other models available at various price ranges. Incredible Tiny Homes also own beautiful acres of land where people rent small plots for $200 a month and are creating communities.

Here is a Gift of thought to the country of Canada 🇨🇦. You have the Arctic.. the solution to the north, north eastern, north western wildfire crises is to build a "shower system".. a system of pipes and "shower systems" that syphen water from your watery-icy areas into these forests and wilderness. Turn it on in the morning and late evening. Let nature do the rest. With love, care, and concern. - someone who cares alot about oxygen. ❤😊
Don't forget it's the 2nd biggest country in the world... lot of landmass tough... Also with extremely cold weather. Water pipes burst my friend even in Southern Quebec in winter... Probably costly & not possible with current tech..Cheers from Montreal
@@sarahsokal According to Gasparini, the best steel to withstand colder temperatures are high-alloy steels like 304 and 310. However, if you live or work in a very cold climate (think Alaska), seek out aluminum alloys that can withstand temperatures as low as -45 degrees Celsius. 😳
It's crazy they are not catching more of the arsonists behind a lot of these fires.
it doesn't really matter friend arson or not, ..the Fires are uncontrollable and the REALITY is MOST fires are 'manmade".
Maybe it is a plan all together
@@-LightningRod- Sadly that fact is that 85-90% of this years are human caused and about 2% are caused by arson. Wildland fires are much different than structural fires when it comes to proving that a particular arsonist started a fire they pretty much have to be seen committing the act of arson.

I do not feel setting up a national strategy to fight wildfires will solve this major problem. Why is Canada not doing more to reduce greenhouse gas emissions which are contributing to climate change and causing the temperature increases? It is very disappointing Canada continues to ignore and do very little about it. Things are only getting worse.🙁
Becausee have conservatives who are sycophants to billionaire corporations and their profits. They pretend global warming is normal weather patterns. Are you not following Sask and Alta?

Because Canada could cut its CO2 emissions to zero tomorrow and it would have a negligible impact on global emissions. Meanwhile, China emits more CO2 in a single day than does all of Canada in three weeks. If you want to see meaningful impact on climate change, get the world to slap a carbon tax on China and its exports.

We need to educate these morons that are starting these fires. They think climate change makes fires. So, if they make one, they are right. The reality is that CO2 makes plants drought resistant. It looks like we also need to educate the politicians to, because they are spreading this nonsense.
WAKE UP EVERYONE AND SEE WHAT THEY ARE DOING

@@WizPigTactics What do you mean by "woke"?

The genius answer to the lack of housing are homeless shelters. Thanks, GloBULL.
Or affordable housing. There are tens of thousands of rentals available in the GTA.
$235,000 for a 585 sqft quick build home in a backyard?... Wow that's incredibly expensive
Could the smoke shrouding NY interfere with the city’s anti missle systems?
Better remove people from all rural lands or the whole place will be on fire by August.
Remember all those projections which said COVID would be the worst thing ever? Only they turned out to be ridiculously wrong? Pepperidge Farm remembers.
Wrong? Have you seen the stats?
@@ozdigg9254 Yes. Most of the deaths were people over the age of 70 and had multiple co-morbidities (average was 3). That really justifies giving an experimental vaccine to children, eh?
It was the worst thing ever and people like you are still whining about it.
@@ozdigg9254 more people died of the flu in Canada in 2019 than two years of Corona virus...did you see the stats?
Imagine if we didn't have a vaccine? One of the best success stories of modern human history.
Did Alberta, central Canada & Nova Scotia have dryer than normal winter and spring 2023 ? please, any and all replies !
Yes, we had barely any snow from January to February which is very rare. We had lots in March, but still not much. The ground could be dryer because of this maybe
great question Moe, .... Canadian Climate Change, drier, hotter, color and more intense is what is happening to Canada and the DownHill Bulldozer of a Changed Climate is just about ready to really get rolling friend. The Climate Globally, has already changed dramatically. Don't forget to VOTE.
this year's wildfire season will be minuscule compared to the wildfire seasons that we'll get in 10-20 years.
It is time for you to wake up
I live in Quebec they call it smog and to stay indoors my cat for 2 days is going bonkers it smell smoke you would think its right beside us but how was this fire started it was a beautiful day no storm lockdown again no thanks and there saying more to come WEF

no way trudis carbon tax will fix it, no fires just more tax so he can holiday 11 months of the year.

Mordor
The price of hamburgers and hot dogs will go up.
@Mark Twain really,..you think "nothing" will happen when to Tar sands catch on fire?

Climate Change fiend, ..its already happened,... peat bogs hundreds and hundreds of meters thick have burned all throughout the history of Our Planet. by the way what temperature does an open pit become,..you know,....flammable? MrPutin is fueled by Climate Change

Can’t be any worse than Trudeau.

Philadelphia has been pretty bad too, The US needs to assist them. These fires are affecting all of is in the northeast
We've been dealing with *smoke season* for a few years now. It's made me wonder if this is what happened to Mars.
😂😂😂😂😂🎉
I’m actually half serious! I’ve wondered if we arrived here from there. Glad we’re exploring Mars & hoping we dig down. Could be interesting!
God bless everyone
Strange, all fires 🔥 simultaneously started on their own!
