WEST KELOWNA, B.C. — Here's what some people are saying about the unfolding wildfire disaster in the Okanagan, where the McDougall Creek fire has forced thousands of people to evacuate from West Kelowna.

"It was a devastating night last night, probably the toughest of my career. We fought hard last night to protect our community. It was like 100 years of firefighting in one night.""To see the fire jumped a lake like that was unreal … And within eight minutes, it felt like a quarter of the mountain was on fire …

“There were people that can’t go anywhere. They think their houses burned down, but they are not sure. You can just see this look on their face.""’It's probably the worst wildfire I’ve ever recorded just because of the human impact … It's a bit like spitting on a campfire when you have a fire that intense. It's very discouraging to see how you just can't slow it down.
