Four New Forest Fires Reported

The Ministry of Natural Resources are dealing with four new forest fires. Officials are calling it a relatively quiet weekend considering much of the region is currently in a "Moderate" or "High" forest fire rating. One of the fires was sparked here in the Thunder Bay district, about 25 kilometres northwest of English River. Two of the fires started Saturday are in the Fort Frances district and the other started in the Kenora district.
