Trudeau is doing everything he can to not put out these fires.
One of the fires last week was near Chibougamau, PQ. This town is the northern most point that the CN railroad goes. The only reason that this town exists is the sawmill that makes 9’ and shorter 2x3 & 2x4 studs. It is primarily a Cree Indian settlement.
The whole town was out fighting the fire last weekend. This is because IF the mill burned down, virtually EVERYONE in Chibougamau would be out of a job. The whole town revolves around the sawmill and the income it provides. The mill was shut down last week. It reopened this past Monday.
