Prime Minister Justin Trudeau visited wildfire-ravaged areas in B.C. for the first time since the province declared a state of emergency.
During his speech at a Red Cross fundraiser in Revelstoke on Saturday, he said the federal government will be helping with the relief efforts.
“British Columbia has provided funding so that the Canadian Red Cross can help evacuees. And we’re following their lead by making a contribution that matches the amount that the Canadian Red Cross is spending on direct support to those who have been evacuated from their homes here in B.C.,” said Trudeau.

The fundraiser was held for the thousands of British Columbians who have been affected by the wildfires.
“We’re all pulling together.”
Trudeau announced the trip shortly after meeting with Premier John Horgan on Tuesday.
Meanwhile, Clinton B.C. was placed under an evacuation order Saturday afternoon, with the exception of the Chasm Mill site, which remains on evacuation alert.

According to the BC Wildfire Service, there are still 19 evacuation orders and 47 evacuation alerts across the province.
In other areas of the province, things are slowly returning to normal, particularly in some communities in southern B.C. where the threat of wildfire has been keeping residents on edge for weeks.
The Cariboo Regional District announced Saturday that the evacuation alert for 100 Mile House and surrounding communities was rescinded.
Officials warn that an alert or order forcing people from their homes yet again is still a possibility.

The Martin Mountain wildfire, which flared up on Wednesday, has been relatively calm. The 150-hectare fire is now 30 per cent contained.
The Elephant Hill wildfire is more than 70,000 hectares.
Environment Canada forecasts rising temperatures up to and above 30 degrees Celsius for the southern Interior in the coming week, and the BC Wildfire Service has said the forests are much more dry than normal.
Officials said Friday that roughly 5,000 people remain displaced by evacuation orders, although the exact number of people currently out of their homes is unclear.
The wildfire service says there are still 130 fires burning across the province, and more than $160.8 million has been spent this season on fighting fires.
