The end is near for British Columbia's fire season, but the provincial emergency management minister says the"sleeping giant" in the season of natural disasters is drought.
Ma says mid-September traditionally marks the end of the peak wildfire season and the province is"in the home stretch" but must remain prepared. After a peak last month when an estimated 30,000 people were ordered out of their homes across the province, Ma says 3,800 people remain under evacuation order and another 34,000 are under alert.
