Sask. wildfires stable, but evacuees stay put: province
Despite some improvement in the fight against wildfires in Northern Saskatchewan, evacuees will spend the long weekend away from home.
The provincial government provided an update Friday morning as three wildfires continue to burn in the area around Pelican Narrows, near the Manitoba border.
“All of those fires are stable we have no reports of any community or critical infrastructure that have been burned by the fire at this time,” said Steve Roberts, head of wildfire management, in a teleconference.
“We’ve also secured the flank of the Preston fire that is immediately is the closest piece to Pelican Narrows.”
