Global National: May 12, 2024 | Wildfires prompt new evacuations across Western Canada

In tonight’s top story: A fire north of Flin Flon, in northern Manitoba, exploded in size overnight. Towering flames forced 700 people in the community of Cranberry Portage to flee Saturday night. The fire activity there is extreme and strong winds mean it could spread quickly. It’s one of a number of wildfires threatening communities across Manitoba, Albert and B.C. Julia Foy reports.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has replaced his defence minister, Sergei Shoigu, on the same day as a deadly explosion at an apartment block near the Ukrainian border. Russian media say at least nine people have been killed after an intercepted Ukrainian missile hit the building in Belgorod. It happened not far from where Russia claims to have seized villages inside Ukraine’s border. Redmond Shannon explains.
There is growing anxiety in Gaza over Israel’s expected assault on Rafah. Despite Israeli orders to evacuate, there’s almost nowhere safe for people in the besieged city to go. At the same time, there is a dangerous shortage of humanitarian aid. As Mackenzie Gray reports, Israel remains steadfast in its plan despite growing international criticism.
A proposed settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit against the Canadian Armed Forces. It’s to help right the wrongs committed against members who say they’ve suffered racial discrimination in the military. But as Heidi Petracek reports, some say it misses the mark.
And finally, on this Mother’s Day one family is celebrating a reunion four decades in the making - one that spans three countries. As Gloria Henriquez explains, it all started with an unexpected gift.

There are many devastating fires in summers in Southern Europe but that part of the world is much drier and in general hotter than any part of Canada (with virtually no snow and little rain year round in South of Europe)... So yes, it is odd that other continents have less events categorized as "wild fires" or "forest fires"....there is some Machiavellian ploy in the works here for sure... One goal would be to discourage ppl from moving outside of large city centres (near US border for example)...destroy any small communities so ppl move away, communities are not revived and eventually the land is available for purchase and development... It's a very long game...ex.Lytton in BC completely burnt to crisp and has significant challenges to rebuild...it was one very suspicious fire...my take on this...sigh...

We need RAIN, lots and lots of rain. We barely even got any snow last winter, seeing grass in February. March had like 2 "storms" of 5-10 cm that melted almost immediately after.

It’s not the spark, but the forest turning into fuel.

FYI, according to the forestry and parks ministry only a fraction of a percentage point has since been attributed to arson for 2023 in Alberta.

Thank you so much for making such a big deal out of these forest fires. Helping spread the climate change fear and encouraging the nut jobs to go light fires.

In Alberta, we knew since late fall that due to the lack of snowfall and the ongoing drought that it would be a severe wild fire season. For f sakes, we had since the beginning of the year to prepare and ensure we had resources ready to battle fires, and Danielle Smith did nothing but lip service and pretended we were prepared. Worst Premier ever.

Spoken like a true climate alarmist. Its arson.

So you blame him for trying, and then blame him for being right? In other words, everyone is always wrong unless somehow the world conforms with how you think it should be?
