In an effort to mitigate future pressures on wildfire crews, the B.C. government is activating a provincewide ban on campfires.
Hundreds of lightning strikes in many parts of British Columbia almost tripled the number of active wildfires in the province over the weekend, with most burning in central and northern B.C.
The campfire ban is necessary to protect resources, as government officials say the wildfire situation has taken a significant turn over the weekend. Global's Aaron McArthur reports.
