Rain and cooler temperatures are providing much-needed relief to firefighters battling a massive wildfire in Jasper National Park, which has devastated up to 50% of the town's structures. The fire, driven by strong winds and severe drought conditions, has forced the evacuation of 25,000 residents and tourists. Despite the destruction, critical infrastructure like hospitals and schools has been protected. Federal and provincial leaders, including Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Alberta Premier Danielle Smith, are coordinating resources and support for the affected communities. Parks Canada, leading the firefighting efforts, emphasized that the wet weather will temporarily reduce fire activity, allowing crews to make significant progress in containment. However, warm weather is expected to return, potentially increasing fire activity once again.
