B.C. lends a helping hand

The Ministry of Natural Resources is getting badly needed help in its fight against 89-raging forest fires in Northwestern Ontario.  100-firefighters from British Columbia are set to arrive today to help local crews. Quebec has also provided 2-water bombers and a Bird dog aircraft. There were 2-new fires reported yesterday; 1-in the Red Lake District and 2-in Thunder Bay.
