Dummies... they're out there...
The B.C. Conservation Officer Service said Thursday that officers patrolling the Clinton, 70 Mile House, Okanagan Lake and Boston Bar areas — all of which have been threatened by out-of-control major fires that remain out of control — handed out 18 tickets for illegal fires over the long weekend, when hot weather and powerful winds turned some fires into infernos.
The impact of the eruption in fire activity continued Thursday, with the evacuation zone along the shores of Okanagan Lake expanding south, while a fresh contingent of 200 Mexican firefighters arrived in B.C., ahead of an expected deployment to the Brunswick complex of fires near Boston Bar.
The Conservation Officer Service said the fines were issued over the weekend in areas where fire prohibitions are in place, although it did not specify if the fires were campfires or other burns. All are banned in the areas described by the service.

I was in Kakabeka Falls park near Thunder Bay, and all the NW Ont fires yesterday. Apparently, before my arrival there was an incident with a fire in the provincial park. A park with a fire ban, and active monitoring from park wardens...Dummies... they're out there...

People are dumb.
I'm hoping the rest of my camping across the country is less impacted by idiots.
