Manitoba declares provincewide state of emergency over wildfires

I just went to Google maps to see where this was and was surprised and saddened to see that Google maps inserts markers for where the wildfires are, and that there are FOUR ACTIVE RIGHT NOW!

Earlier this year I saw the aftermath of fire devastation in Jasper Alberta. Hundreds of acres left with burned black tree trunks and many homes and businesses lost in Jasper itself. I feel for the Manitobans affected. These fires also look too close for comfort to the Pukatawagan/Mathias Colomb Cree Nation to the northeast. I hope everyone stays safe.
