Yellowknife, the capital of the Northwest Territories, is on high alert over fears a nearby wildfire could creep closer to the city of roughly 20,000 people.

The Canadian territory has declared a state of emergency over its deepening fire crisis, which has burned more than 2.1 million hectares of land this year so far, while making evacuations from the region challenging.

Global's Jayme Doll reports from the scene and speaks with people feeling anxious about the looming threat.
