Northern fire evacuees set to go home
Evacuees from a forest fire in Northern Saskatchewan are set to start returning home, Tuesday.
People were evacuated from the communities of the Hamlet of Wollaston Lake and Hatchet Lake First Nation after a massive forest fire was within a kilometre of the communities.
Steve Roberts, the provincial executive director of the Wildfire Management Program said the size of the fire area hasn't changed in the last five days and continues to sit at around 44 square kilometres.
The threat to the communities has lowered, however as the fire moves away.
