“Everything is burning”: Thousands flee as wildfires engulf northern Saskatchewan
Description
June 4, 2025
Thousands of residents are evacuating northern Saskatchewan as fast-moving wildfires engulf communities like La Ronge. Several highways are shut down, cutting off access to the region and forcing many to flee by air or boat. Some locals say they’ve lost their homes and cabins, sharing images of buildings reduced to rubble. Premier Scott Moe is urging people to stay away to allow first responders and evacuees to move safely.
