Behind the Scenes

Our team has been working hard to bring you all the latest news of the wildfires​ raging across northeast B.C., including as blazes grow or shrink, when new or holdover fires reignite, and when evacuation notices are issued or lifted. 

Before all the wet weather swept through, there were three fires classified as ‘of note’ by the BC Wildfire Service and people across the region were put on evacuation alert or told to leave immediately. 

Were you one of those affected, who had to leave your home, not knowing when you would be able to return? We want to hear your experience of what happened and tell your story. If you’d be willing to speak to one of our team, please get in touch by emailing us at contact@energeticcity.ca or call 250-787-7100
