I'm all fine with pointing fingers at the logging industry for bad practices. But I think it's questionable to implicate them on the whole in this summer's fires -- the bulk of the fires in northern Quebec, NWT, the Yukon, etc. are in areas that I don't believe have seen significant logging. They're on the whole extremely remote.
- Ensorceled 3y agoYeah, the bulk of the fires were in areas that are "managed" only in the sense that there are regulations about whether, what and how you can log. That remoteness was a big part of the problem fighting these fires ... it's not like you could use an old logging road to get there.
