Multiple communities have been subject to evacuation orders as intense wildfires continue to spread across western Canada.

Experts are expecting this summer’s wildfire season to be particularly severe, which is why officials and emergency organizations are urging Canadians to prepare in case they are ordered to leave their homes.
