Fire risk in Alberta even more extreme than 2016 Fort McMurray wildfire
Description

Experts say between the low humidity, hot weather and strong winds, conditions are prime, not only for wildfires to start, but also to spread. As Sarah Ryan explains, fire bans are popping up all over in an effort to prevent human-caused blazes.
