To my knowledge, no. We had many discussions with staff from the parks. They would tell us that they were going to do a burn in the fall and that they were going to do a burn in the spring. Those never happened. In our pine beetle task force that we set up with Parks Canada, the industry of the area, the Town of Hinton, the Town of Edson and Yellowhead County, there was always “going to do”, but nothing happened.
On October 23rd, 2024. See this statement in context.
