The Wildfire Act needs your input

On behalf of the BC Wildfire Service, we are pleased to share this opportunity with First Nations communities.

The BC Wildfire Service is in the early stages of policy development to address issues with the Wildfire Act and Regulation that are affecting wildfire operations and public safety in the province.

We will be hosting three virtual sessions with the intention of hearing your feedback, perspectives, and suggestions for addressing issues with the Wildfire Act. 

The webinars will be February 10, 12 and 18:
