Canada recently experienced two of its worst wildfire seasons on record.
More than five million hectares burned last year — the most ever recorded, aside from 2023, when wildfires scorched 16 million hectares.
Alberta was hit especially hard, including the popular tourist town of Jasper, where a third of the community burned in July 2024.
Early signs point to another active wildfire season in 2025, particularly in Western Canada.
Here is an up-to-date look at the country’s wildfire situation today.
