N.S. firefighters head to Ontario as wildfires burn
The Department of Natural Resources says about 20 firefighters have been deployed to assist with wildfires in Ontario, along with leadership personnel who will help coordinate operations on the ground.
The deployment is part of Canada’s mutual aid system, which allows provinces and territories to share resources during emergencies.
DNR officials say the effort reflects the strong partnerships, expertise, and dedication of firefighters across the country.
