Wildfires, Eh?

The sky looked a little orange today.


OK, really orange.
Which probably meant there was a big wildfire burning somewhere.


When I checked my weather app this afternoon,
I noticed an interactive air-quality map,
so I decided to open it up and see where the smoke was coming from.


Hmm . . . maybe that wildfire up in Quebec?


Then I zoomed out some more,
and discovered that half of Canada looked like it was on fire!
I Googled "Canada wildfires" and learned that 
there are over 880 wildfires in Canada right now,
and at least 580 of them are out of control.
O Canada!
