Canada is in the grip of its second-worst wildfire season on record, with flames now stretching beyond the West into Prairie and Atlantic provinces including Saskatchewan, Manitoba and Newfoundland and Labrador.

The Canadian Interagency Forest Fire Centre says 7.5 million hectares have already burned in 2025, surpassing the 10-year average and reinforcing warnings that wildfire seasons are growing longer, more destructive and less predictable.

Raging, out-of-control wildfires have forced tens of thousands from their homes nationwide over the past weeks. In Manitoba alone, the Canadian Red Cross says it has helped more than 32,000 people from about 12,000 households evacuate.
