More Fire Crews Heading to Northwestern Ontario

The ministry of Natural Resources is getting some much needed help to combat the fire situation.

100 personal from BC are now in the province and 100 more are expected by the end of the week.

MNR Spokesperson Deb MacLean says its turning out to be a busy fire season.

MacLean says the fire hazard in the Northwest remains moderate at this time but expects it'll rise when hot dry conditions return.
