Full Fire Ban to Alberta Forest

[chuck0039]

I'm surprised it took this long to have the fire ban put in place. Lets hope we get some rain soon.

There should probably be a ban on ATV traffic as well with how dry it is. Hopefully the June rains come and green things up!

Provincewide fire ban in effect

most misleading title ever... like you said it applies to only the forest protection area and then the radio starts saying no fires allowed anywhere in Alberta. i swear we get lazier every single day we're not able to check a single fact.

i'm still going to burn my burn barrel tonight if it's not windy

Well then ban everyone, because fishermen smoke and they may start one with a cigarette butt.

They say a propane BBQ is allowed but how about a propane fire pit ?

Confused.
I'd personally take the high road and err on the side of caution...
But it sure be nice if the info was straight!
