VANCOUVER — British Columbia Premier David Eby says he's launching an expert task force into wildfires, drought and heat emergencies that have hammered the province.
Eby's tour of the Interior comes as the British Columbia Wildfire Service says several fires in central and northwestern parts of the province have flared up, prompting expanded evacuation orders or alerts in several areas. The Regional District of Bulkley-Nechako also expanded an evacuation alert for part of the northeast flank of the North Lucas Lake blaze, 70 kilometres southwest of Vanderhoof, while the Fraser-Fort George Regional District added an evacuation alert to an area north of Prince George threatened by the 147-square kilometre Great Beaver Lake Fire.
In the Kamloops Fire Centre where Eby and Emergency Management Minister Bowinn Ma were visiting Monday, more than 1,900 square kilometres have burned this season after lightening sparked blazes across the region.
