Sadly another town might be lost to wild fire and there still lots of people out there that think having a camp fire is ok during fire bands. Between 30 and 50% of wild fires are started by humans in BC over the years of 2020 to 2024.
Van Anda Fire Department updated their status.
When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted.

Effective at 12:00 p.m. (noon) PDT on Thursday, July 16, 2026, Category 1, 2 and 3 open fires will be prohibited throughout the Coastal Fire Centre’s jurisdiction, with exceptions for Category 1 campfires in parts of the North Island and Sunshine Coast.
Category 1 campfires will remain permitted in the Campbell River Forest District, North Island Central Coast Forest District, Haida Gwaii Forest District and Sunshine Coast Forest District. These areas are currently experiencing different weather and fuel conditions than other parts of the Coastal Fire Centre, with fire danger ratings and fire weather indices indicating a lower wildfire risk at this time.
Conditions are continually monitored, and restrictions are implemented where they are needed most to reduce the risk of human-caused wildfires and help protect communities, responders and our forests.
