I’m honestly a bit disappointed in the takes I’m seeing here in the comments. People literally repeating stuff reported by Alex Jones as if that’s in any way a trustworthy source.
I love the woods, that’s why I’m more than happy to avoid them during an ongoing crisis. Let the firefighters save the forests and not accidentally give them more work, y’know?
As highlighted in Gilmore’s video, it’s 100% the same energy as the reaction the right had to masking mandates.

This is the first I’ve heard of the issue, I haven’t seen any other media reporting on it. This is purely my response to the claims presented in the video.

You could make less work for firefighters by living in a concrete cell with no electricity, y’know?
We could also make less work for firefighters by collectively performing society-wide mass suicide, but I don’t see what that has to do with reasonable restrictions during a time of crisis.
My definition of crisis is when there are multiple out of control forest fires active in my province. I think restricting activity in high-risk areas makes sense, especially when firefighting resources are already used up fighting existing fires elsewhere in the province.

I can only assume this is aimed at my comment.

I could have missed it but I don’t recall her video saying the restrictions were intended to be temporary.
Edit: anyone thinking this was a claim of permanent restrictions lacks reading comprehension
lol
You forgot your tin foil hat.
Only conspiracy nuts would entertain the possibility that this isn’t getting lifted whenever the wildfire risk goes down
So, “not temporary” is different from “permanent” how exactly?
I didn’t make a claim I just said it wasn’t in the linked video.
Define “crisis” though.
Are there active fires in the neighborhood? 100% agree.
Is there a drought and increased risk for fire? There are appropriate measures for that, no reason for a full ban.
Masking mandates were appropriate measures at that time, no full stay at home ban was needed. Your comparison makes no sense.

Crown land, sure. But they even banned access to things like small city parks with trees. That’s just crazy to me, I’m sorry.
I am not up to date on the situation, so if there are out of control fires in progress, I definitely agree.
Comments here make it sound like it was just dry season with a high risk of fire, but no actual fires.
