1 helicopter bucketing, 14 firefighters respond to Cultus Lake forest fire

BC Wildfire Service has lost its way

The Chilliwack Progress is reporting that "The wildfire ignited at Cultus Lake in the early hours, which is listed as out of control, has 14 firefighters and a helicopter responding from the Coastal Fire Centre, according to the BC Wildfire Service (BCWS)." 

"Residents at the lakeside community reported seeing a water-bomber aircraft pass over the lake with low hanging smoke drifting near the water level, before the wildfire response started." Can I get a WTF brother?

We have all noticed a change in BC's forest fire mismanagement. Instead of using water bombers like we have for generations, we now use a helicopter with a bucket and a guy with a shovel. That isn't science. That isn't technological advancement. That is bat sh*t crazy and criminal culpability.

August 2023 there was a large fire in Kelowna that jumped the lake and got dangerously close to the town. It wasn't until the fire jumped the lake that they finally brought in the water bombers and quickly brought it under control. The question is why did they wait so long to bring in the water bombers?

We keep getting climate change crammed down our throat which forces us to ask, instead of throwing our hand in the air like Chicken Little, why don't we simple adapt and prepare for it?

We need to be more proactive in dealing with forest fires not less. We notice dryer summers. Whether that be from climate change or America Harp radar systems like the one Iran just blew up, we do notice drier summers.

BC has always had a forest fire problem in the summer. Pilots wanting to get their commercial pilots license needed hours so they would fly small water bomber float planes during the BC fires. A fire beside a lake makes this very effective because they can fill up on the lake. Even a fire on the coast, as we saw in LA, Canadian water bombers filled up in the ocean. It's not ideal but it works. Salt water isn't toxic. 

All this fake science is getting out of hand. We saw them cut the water off in Maui and LA. Both were for stupid reasons. It's hard not to think there's some kind of agenda or conspiracy at play when you see such obvious negligence.

Then there's the back burns that back fire.  This is too important to screw up the way we are. All that money spent on spraying the forests to prevent under growth which increases the risk of forest fires needs to be spent on water bombers. It's that simple. Rage, denial and lies will not change that. 

Shuswap Fires Intentionally Lit By Canadian Authorities

You wanna save the planet? Then save the f*cking planet. Don't burn it to the ground with your bullsh*t lies.
