I've been thinking about it for a few weeks now. On the news today I heard that the red cross and our military is getting involved with firefighting up north in my province. The fires up in the north of my province are going out of control alongside the ones in other provinces. There's 600 active firefighters right now and the military is sending in another 1000 people to help.

So, basically, I'm going to pack my shit and head out tonight to sign up for whatever volunteer work they have going up there. They might train me up in firefighting or sign me on to work with a shovel, or hauling water or something. But, obviously, the people up there need help. I feel obliged to.

So, guys. As always. It's been fun. I'll see you all after satan kindly leaves my home alone.

Remember that this makes you better than the regular firefighters, because you're doing their entire job in your spare time.

Good luck, man. Wildfires are serious shit.

I don't think they'll put me on the front lines. I have no fire fighting experience and obviously you need to be experienced when you're dealing with forest fires and wind direction and all that.

Doesn't mean I can't drive a truck or work on a dirt line though. There's not just firefighters up there either. There's all the people giving them support and stuff. Anyway. We'll see how it goes.

Thanks for reasurance though.

You could say I'm a bit cautious of this. Smoke for my lungs and all that. And fire, of course. Anyway. Should get down to business now.

Bon voyage friend.

Goodluck man. Stay safe and all that. Looking forward to hearing your firefighting adventure stories when you come back

Wait.

Canada has a military?

Wildfires, never given any thought to them-and not something i'd associate with Canada

Gg though
