This web map shows the current wildfires and fire danger zones within Canada. The layers used within this web map are Esri Canada's wildfire live feature services that are updated daily along with NRCan's current fire danger WMS. A description of each layer can be found below along with the link to their respective items on ArcGIS Online.***The live feature services within this webmap are now paused and will not receive data updates until next fire season. April 1st, 2025 is the predicated date for this service to resume***Active Wildfires in CanadaReported active fire locations are updated daily as provided by fire management agencies (provinces, territories and Parks Canada). The fires data is managed through a national Data Integration Project (DIP) coordinated by the Canadian Interagency Forest Fire Centre (CIFFC) and Natural Resources Canada with participation from all partner agencies. The active fires data includes attributes for agency, fire name, latitude, longitude, start date, fire size (ha) and stage of control (fire status). Possible values for stage of control include: OC (Out of Control), BH (Being Held), UC (Under Control), EX (Out).Supplemental InformationThe national Data Integration Project (DIP) is coordinated by the Canadian Interagency Forest Fire Centre (CIFFC) and Natural Resources Canada with participation from all partner agencies. This initiative focuses on development and implementation of data standards and enabling the exchange and access of national fire data. More details are available in the CIFFC IM/IT Strategy, available at: https://ciffc.ca/publications/general-publications.Feux de végétation actifs au CanadaLes positions rapportées des feux de végétation actifs sont mises à jour quotidiennement d'après les données fournies par les agences de gestion des feux (provinces, territoires et Parcs Canada). Les données sur les feux sont gérées dans le cadre d'un Projet d'intégration de données national coordonné par le Centre interservices des feux de forêt du Canada (CIFFC) et par Ressources naturelles Canada, avec la participation de tous les organismes partenaires. Les données sur les feux actifs comprennent les champs d'attributs des agences, le nom du feu, la latitude, la longitude, le début du feu, la taille du feu (ha) et le stade de contrôle (état du feu). Les valeurs possibles pour le stade de contrôle sont les suivantes : OC (out of control/hors de contrôle), BH (being held/contenu), UC (under control/maîtrisé) et EX (out/éteint).Renseignements complémentairesLe Projet d'intégration de données national est coordonné par le CIFFC et par Ressources naturelles Canada, avec la participation de tous les organismes partenaires. Cette initiative a pour but d'élaborer et de mettre en œuvre des normes de données, ainsi que de rendre possible l'accès aux données nationales sur les feux et l'échange de ces données. On trouvera plus de détails à ce sujet dans la Stratégie de GI/TI du CIFFC, à l'adresse suivante : https://ciffc.ca/publications/general-publicationsActive Wildfire Perimeters in CanadaThis dataset displays active wildfire perimeters derived from hotspots identified in satellite imagery provided by the Canadian Wildland Fire Information System (CWFIS) and Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) updated every 3 hours. || Ce jeu de données, mis à jour toutes les trois heures, affiche les périmètres de feux de forêt actifs dérivés des points chauds relevés dans l’imagerie satellite fournie par le Système canadien d’information sur les feux de végétation (SCIFV) et Ressources naturelles Canada (RNCan).Wildfire Smoke Forecast in CanadaThis layer displays forecasted wildfire smoke across Canada sourced from BlueSky Canada's FireSmoke Canada app, updated every 6 hours. The wildfire smoke layer consists of hourly concentrations of particulate matter 2.5 microns and smaller (PM2.5) in units of micrograms per meter cubed (µg/m3) observed at ground level from wildfires. It is an approximation of when and where wildfire smoke events may occur over the next two days. This layer is sourced from BlueSky Canada's FireSmoke Canada app.Current Fire DangerFire Danger is a relative index of how easy it is to ignite vegetation, how difficult a fire may be to control, and how much damage a fire may do. Fire Danger is a reclassification of the CFFDRS fire weather index (FWI) which is a numeric rating of fire intensity.These general fire descriptions apply to most coniferous forests. The national fire danger maps show conditions as classified by the provincial and territorial fire management agencies. Choice and interpretation of classes may vary between provinces. For fuel-specific fire behavior, consult the Fire Behavior Prediction maps.• Low: Fires likely to be self-extinguishing and new ignitions unlikely. Any existing fires limited to smoldering in deep, drier layers.• Moderate: Creeping or gentle surface fires. Fires easily contained by ground crews with pumps and hand tools.• High: Moderate to vigorous surface fire with intermittent crown involvement. Challenging for ground crews to handle; heavy equipment (bulldozers, tanker trucks, aircraft) often required to contain fire.• Very High: High-intensity fire with partial to full crown involvement. Head fire conditions beyond the ability of ground crews; air attack with retardant required to effectively attack fire's head.• Extreme: Fast-spreading, high-intensity crown fire. Very difficult to control. Suppression actions limited to flanks, with only indirect actions possible against the fire's head.Forecasted weather data provided by Environment Canada. More information about forecasted weather is available at https://cwfis.cfs.nrcan.gc.ca/background/dsm/fwiMore information about the Canadian Forest Fire Weather Index (FWI) System is available at https://cwfis.cfs.nrcan.gc.ca/background/summary/fwiMaps are produced using Spatial Fire Management System and are updated multiple times per day.Maps updated daily, year-round.Supplemental InformationThe Canadian Forest Fire Danger Rating System (CFFDRS). is a national system for rating the risk of forest fires in Canada.Forest fire danger is a general term used to express a variety of factors in the fire environment, such as ease of ignition and difficulty of control. Fire danger rating systems produce qualitative and/or numeric indices of fire potential, which are used as guides in a wide variety of fire management activities.The CFFDRS has been under development since 1968. Currently, two subsystems–the Canadian Forest Fire Weather Index (FWI) System and the Canadian Forest Fire Behavior Prediction (FBP) System–are being used extensively in Canada and internationally.Risque d'incendie actuelLe risque d'incendie est un indice relatif indiquant le niveau de facilité pour allumer un incendie de végétation, le niveau de difficulté qu'un incendie peut demander pour être contrôlé ainsi que la quantité de dommages qu'un incendie peut causer.Ces descriptions générales des incendies s'appliquent à la plupart des forêts de conifères. Les cartes nationales sur le danger d'incendie illustrent les conditions telles qu'elles sont classées par les agences provinciales et territoriales de gestion des feux. Le choix et l'interprétation des classes peuvent varier entre les provinces. En ce qui a trait au comportement des incendies en regard du combustible spécifique, veuillez consulter les cartes de prédiction du comportement des incendies.• Faible: Incendie possiblement auto-extincteur; de nouveaux allumages sont invraisemblables. Tout incendie existant est limité à couver dans des couches profondes plus sèches.• Modéré: Incendie de surface rampant modéré. Il est facilement circonscrit par les équipes au sol munies de pompes et d'outils manuels.• Élevé: Incendie de surface modéré à vigoureux avec implication intermittente des cimes. Pose des défis aux équipes chargées de le combattre sur le terrain; les équipements lourds (bouteurs, camions-citernes à eau et avions) sont souvent requis pour contenir l'incendie.• Très élevé: Incendie de forte intensité avec implication partielle ou complète des cimes. Les conditions au front de l'incendie sont au-delà de la capacité des équipes sur le terrain à y faire face; les attaques aériennes avec largage de produits ignifugeants sont requises pour combattre effectivement le front de l'incendie.• Extrême: Feu de cimes à forte intensité et à propagation rapide. Très difficile à contrôler. Les actions de suppression sont limitées aux flancs alors que seules des actions indirectes sont possibles au front de l'incendie.Prévisions météorologiques fournies par Environnement Canada.

Les méthodes d'évaluation du danger d'incendie génèrent des indices qualitatifs ou numériques du potentiel d'incendie qui sont utilisés comme guides dans une grande variété d'activités de gestion des incendies de forêt.La MCEDIF est en cours d'élaboration depuis 1968. En ce moment, deux sous-systèmes – la Méthode

On July 12, 1898 Fire Chief Ackerman applied to City Council for a two month leave of absence, which was granted. During Chief Ackerman’s absence the following occurred:Saturday September 10, 1898 at 11:00 pm, the Hyack Brigade received a call that brought firemen to the B & K wharf on Front Street. Fire had originated in several tons of hay stored on this wharf, which extended approximately 200 feet along the waterfront. The fire was located at the upper end of the wharf and was bursting through the roof. In a short time the entire warehouse was ablaze and the flames spread to the large City Market building which adjoined on the north, fronting on the Square. So fierce was the heat, the books were barely rescued from the Market. Within ten minutes the flames had crossed to the brick buildings occupying the northern side of Front Street opposite B & K wharf and, fanned by a stiff wind from the South-East, the firemen had all they could do to control them. This may have been accomplished and the fire confined to The Lytton (formerly the Caledonian Hotel) Lam Tung’s and Webster’s Building but for an unexpected turn of events. The three Stern Wheeled steamers Gladys, Edgar and Bon Acord, which had been tied to the wharf had quickly taken fire. The tide was running out strong at this time and as soon as the lashings of the vessels were cut they drifted with the stiff wind along the docks setting fire to all the wharfs and warehouses on the water front. In minutes a large quantity of hay stored in the CPR. warehouse was engulfed in flames spreading rapidly to the brick buildings in the next block. Before the flaming steam boats sank they had ignited the Sinclair and Western Fisheries salmon canneries.
