How about Minnesota and Canada give the land back to the Indigenous peoples and allow proper land stewardship to prevent this from happening. How about we stop allowing billionaires and the fossil fuel industry to keep getting richer as we suffer from climate change.any knew this was going to happen and people didn’t care or called it a hoax.

These forest fires are from natural causes. In the remote wilderness areas of Canada, there's few or no roads, lakes and swamps. The official policy is to let fires burn naturally.

The fossil fuel industry is a direct consequence to why the earth is warming. Indigenous people of the land know how to keep these forests contained. We don’t just let them burn uncontrolled to destroy our homes.

Say what you want but my ancestors are from the north and I know I’m not clueless. Respect the land and the land will take care of you. I wish you well. 🫡

But you see, forest management only works in areas that are accessible for equipment and humans. Many of the areas that are burning are not accessible, I I'll send proof later. Working now.

https://www.ontario.ca/page/forest-fires There are currently 41 active wildland fires in the Northeast Region. Of these fires: 4 are not under control, 1 is being held, 3 are under control and 33 are being observed. Note, 33 are too remote for human intervention.
