Fires in Canada
If you are anywhere east of eastern Ontario, you should be fine from forest fires. Forest fires usually occur in summer in the western Provinces, NW Ontario and some parts of the north. Always check the news for info on forest fires and if you must go through them, be very cautious. A lot of times the roads will be closed off. They are extremely unlikely in major cities, but in smaller places, be prepared for evacuation.
Fires in British Columbia are particularly vicious and wide spread. The combination of dry summers and large forests isn't a good one, and widespread forest fires are common throughout the northern part of the province, mercifully far away from the tourist hubs of Whistler, Victoria and Vancouver. The province had serious issues with forest fires in the summer of 2009, with thousands having to be evacuated.
