Okanagan firefighters help fight wildfires in northeastern B.C.
Description
May 17, 2023
As fires continue burning aggressively in northeastern B.C.--fire departments from the Okanagan are doing what they can to help. Numerous firefighters from the valley have already been deployed to the North Peace Fire Complex and more are getting ready to go. As Klaudia Van Emmerik reports, local fire crews are more than willing to help, especially since Kelowna knowns first-hand how critical the support can be.
