Forest Fire Season Heats up in Kenora District
What a difference a week makes.
After a slow start to the forest fire season, the Kenora District has seen a rash of blazes over the past couple of days.
Fire information officer Debbie McLean says they've responded to five blazes in the past two days, all of the which have been human caused.
McLean says a fire about 10 kilometers from the Kenora Airport is listed as being held today, after it grew to over six hectares yesterday.
