Melfort Fire Chief urges to obey fire bans when in place
The City of Melfort’s Fire Chief is making sure everyone stays safe when it comes to open fires in the province.
Jason Everitt said that with conditions the way they are in the province, and the wildfires that have already burned, people need to obey fire bans when in place.
“It’s for their protection,” Everitt told northeastNOW. “Not only for their safety as well as their property and their neighbours, but also the safety of the first responders that would be called to action a fire in very dry, brittle, and dangerous conditions as we’re seeing across the province now.”
