Alberta authorities have ordered residents of a First Nations community in the Cold Lake region to evacuate as wildfires spread across the province.
Alberta authorities have issued the first evacuation order for this year as wildfires spread across Canada ’s biggest oil producer. Per a Bloomberg report, the residents of a First Nation community in the Cold Lake region were ordered to evacuate because of the blaze. Several other communities in the vicinity were put on standby, the report added. The Cold Lake indigenous area is to the north of Edmonton , close to the border with Saskatchewan .
In March of that year, over 300,000 bpd of daily production were shut in because of the fires, representing 3.7% of total output. At the time, there were 110 active wildfires across Alberta, of which 36 were out of control. Over 65% of the territory of Canada was unusually dry at the end of March, Bloomberg noted in its most recent report. These were similar conditions to last year’s when the country suffered its worst wildfire season, according to reports.
