If that's really all of the documented fires in Canada, then that means Californians are a FAR greater threat to the environment than CO2 emissions.

Pretty sure it's not and hopefully Mr Woods is smart enough to know that... Obviously that's just the reporting for the United States.

Whether or not there are fires up there is a completely different question, but not whether or not this map is supposed to show it

Edit -- just looked it up on their website and there are 25 active wildfires in British Columbia right now that are being tracked with three of them starting in just the last two days. Like 600+ so far this year in that province alone

Your source literally says 25 active wildfires, but 3 more in the last 2 days

IlxTheGreat 29 points ago +31 / -2

So if you looked, you would have noticed it said 25 wildfires in last 7 days. 2 currently active. Left column, right column. Honestly, my brain is 50% dead, and I read that..I think. Let me look again. Oops, up to 3 in the last 2 days.

But all of those fires are minor. BC has had very few fires this summer and most of them were quite minor. Look here: http://firesmoke.ca/forecasts/current/ and see that almost all the smoke is from fires in Washington and Oregon.

Can confirm. Do lots of business in Canada physically and their wildfires really aren’t much to worry about, on the wider scale of things.

Kawdfather 7 points ago +7 / -0

Not so. Your shit is on fire because it is politically expedient. Wildfires are a common occurrence and an natural phenomena. Some plants do not even germinate unless fire is involved. That means that naturally occurring fires should randomly occur given the right conditions. The fact that they are only starting close to major highways is one clue. The fact that they are not occurring in remote areas is another. There are currently two wildfires in British Columbia, Canada. Bothe are in the South East county of BC. Both are remote fires in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. Correlate that with the fires in Washington, Oregon and California. Below is a link to a BC map of wildfires. https://governmentofbc.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=a1e7b1ecb1514974a9ca00bdbfffa3b1

No, no, no. That comes later in the agenda. When they start making gulags and concentration camps. Then certain Californians will be deemed as a danger, rounded up and summarily disposed of.

It's worse than Cali logic up here (possibly, I have no first hand xp with Cali but do Canada).

Here the greentards want to sacrifice our economy and put on tarriffs and sanctions for carbon when nobody in the world gives a shit about us (we're 38 million people, we're the size of California without the economy to show for it).

In fact, we actually consume more CO2 than we produce thanks to all our forests and algae filled lakes but the greentards ignore that fun fact.

It's 26 "active fires" of which only two appear critical.

Wow, It's sure possible I'm wrong. Honestly, seizures/strokes caused 50% brain loss before I was considered disabled. But that sure looks like it's only up to oops 3 active wildfires now. 26 in last 7 days.

I'd say the map is a bit off as I've lived on the west coast of canada for most of my life and it's the northern parts of british columbia that tend to be the most vulnerable to that shit. Many people don't realize that there are quite a lot of salt-water bodies in the region, especially near Prince George, which cause the trees to dry out faster and in turn make them way more vulnerable to random ignition/combustion. It's one of the reasons many truckers go through alberta to get to alaska, as it tends to be safer than the fiery death-trap of our northern edge.

I have lived in vancouver canada my entire life. I still do. Last year our forest fire season was very bad. This year though its been really really good. I have forest fire fighter friends and they didn't even get called this summer. The fires in BC canada arent even bad at all. Would love to see a proper pic with all the mexican and canadian fired too

Sure, until you realize that BC has very few fires, and those that do exist are pretty much all minor, with overall it being a very fire-free summer compared to two years before. His statement is pretty much dead on. The smoke map shows exactly what I'm talking about: http://firesmoke.ca/forecasts/current/ Almost all the smoke is from fires in Washington and Oregon.

Actually it's more than that. It's a tool to control people with. Seriously. They did a study in the 60's, to see what would get people to cooperate with their governments other than war. Their results: probably nothing. But if anything would work it would have to be huge, incredibly wasteful, and scary.

How to tell this is true: if they really wanted to make a difference, they would just talk about reducing pollution. Everyone agrees that's a good idea. There's so much we could easily do to reduce pollution, that we don't do or even hear about.

Also, the fact that pollution is problematic gives them a certain amount of buy in from the public.

Last night I was hunting for an audio book to listen to while I drove today. I found one called: Witches Be Crazy, by: Logan J. Hunder. I bought it because a reviewer said it was light hearted and fun.

Guess what in the first chapter our hero was introduced Gavin Newsom. Newsom was using the name Rain-child Earth-humper the Wise. In the sixth chapter we learned about Earth-humper's impeccably coufed hair and that he demands the closest shave in town because he will not tolerate any hair blocking the peoples view of his magnificent jaw line.

It got spookey when in a few chapters later our hero ran into Sir Pense the snake.

The US emits more CO2 per capita than Canada and therefore has more wildfires. Checkmate Trumptards!

CMDRConanAAnderson 3 points ago +3 / -0

Fine California and penalize them for the CO2 they produce with their constant fires. Environmentalists should be all over this but are busy hiding under a rock. Remember how vocal they were about the Amazon forests being burned? This is an entire state on fire.

3
MapleBaconWaffles 3 points ago +3 / -0

This sounds great, we should bring it up at the next Paris Accord type meetings.

As "global warming" inevitably takes its toll, our high arctic will start to warm, and our forests will expand inexorably northwards, thus removing carbon from the atmosphere. As such we should be exempt from any of their carbon targets, and they should thank us profusely.

MW23232 2 points ago +2 / -0

I said this months ago, only regarding Coronavirus. If you looked at a map, the US was completely inundated supposedly, & Canada and Mexico were almost deserted except major cities. The border towns didn't even look significantly higher than the rest of those countries, either, which just could not be, since "essential" people travel back and forth daily. I realize the testing, etc., was different, but still, the optics were too drastic to be true. And that was a world map, showing every country. Not just the US.

2
Rune_ 2 points ago +2 / -0

Yeah if it were “climate change” you’d think it’d affect more than just the USA

2
Red_Turtle 2 points ago +2 / -0

So I've been thinking this all day as I see you guys post more of these maps.

Question.

With the threat/information we have of antifa/BLM saying they're going to DC to "protest" until election day, does it look like most of antifa is just driving to DC and using the main roads to brun the entire country as they go? Or is that too obvious for them to even consider even for their antics?

It seems like the fires started and focused near the riot cities, razed north and south, then started spreading east after a vertical line was established. Looks like battle formations set up and then marching orders given.

2
CuomoisaMassMurderer 2 points ago +2 / -0

DEFINITELY!! Expect them to set fires everywhere they can, all the way to DC. When everybody said Portland quieted down because they were all in DC I knew that wasn't right.

One of the many times I only wished I was wrong. Sure, my house is someplace they'd never get to, BUT ...

The_Kuru 2 points ago +2 / -0

But Democrats aren't doing their bugchaser/giftgiver thing by spreading the covid where politically necessary by keeping refrigerated covid alive and spreading it in politically expedient locales, events, etc. That would be crazy to expect they'd do such a thing.

JimRaynor 2 points ago +2 / -0

Canadian active fire map doesn't show the fires continuing into canada, Also they all start near major highways and human roads with nothing in the inner parts of forests. The map is satellite created so one cant argue that fires are marked near roads because thats where they are detected
