ALBERTA CANADA FIRE DOUBLES IN SIZE ! Wildfire Bigger Than Greater London & Threatens Saskatchewan
A huge wildfire raging in the Canadian province of Alberta is growing further and could spill into neighbouring Saskatchewan, officials say. Smoke from the fire has already spread there, and air quality statements have been issued for both Saskatchewan and Northwest Territory. There are warnings the blaze could burn to the edge of a facility run by Suncor Energy but officials said the risk of damage was low.
“These sites are very resilient to wildfire, largely because they’re free and clear of vegetation and trees,” said Chad Morrison, Alberta’s head of wildfire prevention. Fort McMurray is in the heart of Canada’s oil sands country, and the region has the world’s third-largest reserves of oil.
As much as a quarter of the country’s oil production has been halted by the fire, raising concerns about the effect on the Canadian economy. oil sands false flag agenda movie prediction
A state of emergency has been declared in the province of Alberta in Canada after a wildfire forced all 88,000 residents of Fort McMurray to flee.
Officials say the fast-moving blaze could destroy much of the city.
The fire, which broke out on Sunday in the heart on the country’s oil sands region, has gutted 1,600 buildings, including a new school.
The evacuation was the largest-ever in Alberta. Oil companies operating in the area have been forced to cut output.
Several firms have shut down some pipelines. This was done to help evacuate non-essential personnel, reports say, but oil facilities are not in the current path of the fire.
So far there have been no reports of deaths or injuries, but two women gave birth in one evacuation centre, Reuters new agency reported.

Thousands bunked down in arenas, hockey rinks and oil work camps, often short of fuel and food.
A huge cloud of black smoke was visible from well over 60 km (37 miles) away from the town. Traffic on the main road headed south had thinned to a trickle, however, after major jams on Tuesday when the evacuation order was given.
Stretches of the highway had been converted into make-shift campgrounds by people in cars, trucks and recreation vehicles, who were fleeing the inferno.
Firefighting crews have been unable to stop the wildfire, which has charred 18,500 acres (7,500 hectares) since it erupted on Sunday and exploded in ferocity. Fort McMurray itself is sealed off to all but the emergency services but it is reportedly a scene of devastation. The province declared a state of emergency for what was shaping up to be Canada’s costliest natural disaster.
Fort McMurray describes itself as the “gateway to the north” – a region which is home to the third largest reserves of oil in the world behind Saudi Arabia and Venezuela.
It may be remote, but Fort McMurray’s proximity to Canada’s rich oil sands has helped it to become a hugely prosperous place, drawing oil workers from across the world. Canada orders mass evacuation
