An out-of-control wildfire keeps creeping closer to the town of Hay River, N.W.T., and unfavourable weather conditions are pushing firefighters to their limits. Mike Armstrong reports on the battle to keep the community safe, the challenge of getting more boots on the ground and how some residents are defying an evacuation order by staying behind to protect their community.
Canada’s wildfire season has smashed its one-year record for carbon emissions, and the amount of toxic smoke being released into the air is having a major effect on the environment. Eric Sorensen explains the vicious cycle of carbon emissions, wildfires and the warming planet.
Ransomware attacks are now the most disruptive form of cybercrime on Canadians, according to a new report from the Canadian Centre for Cyber Security. Mackenzie Gray explains the findings, the attacks’ consequences to the Canadian economy and what hackers are expected to target next.

The better understanding of having machines to be able to put out the fires before they destroy housing! Making people homeless . We need more training in the sky.
Can you talk about "the planned fires" in Maui ?!! It is evil to see millionaires houses unscathed !!
Global warming is exponential and there are knock on effect we can’t for see. It’s pretty much end game. We can’t even vote for Green fearing it’ll be bad for the “economy’. So stupid and short sighted.
Vladimir Putin's war …. What a ridiculous statement for a propaganda network like this
How many wild fires in Russia? Wouldn't they also be in flames too? Or is it jus NA trees burn?
That Nisga'a pole was moss covered and teetering when it was 'stolen' 100 years ago. It would have totally rotted by now – if not for the Scottish Museum.
Where is all the new found weed money going? Why don't we have our own Canadian car companies? How about Canada use manufacturing to combat climate change? With all our resources natural and it's citizens generally kicking azz, it's citizens should be the richest in the world. I mean driving electric Bentley's and Lambo's rich. We don't spend it on manufacturing, we don't spend it on infrastructure, we don't spend it on agriculture, we don't spend it on education, we don't spend it on military, we certainly don't spend it on forestry. WTH is all our money going?
…We don't spend it on seniors, we don't spend it on veterans, we don't spend it on deficit reduction, we don't spend it on health care, we don't spend it on homeless, we don't spend it on …
So I just read that Canada is ranked 4rth for the country with the most amount of natural resources in the world. We are number 2 or 3 for the worlds largest oil reserves. Please someone tell me why Team Canada isn't running this sh88? All of our citizens should be living in solid gold houses and wearing diamond encrusted pants.
Our annual GDP is over 1 trillion. When was the last time you saw something that said made in Canada? …oh, we do have Tim Horton's and Roots clothing so I guess that's good enough
One more thing. 400,000 Ukrainians soldiers have died so far. almost 5000 were killed just this past week with 800 in one day. Russia has 1/5 of that. I heard those numbers do not include wounded and maimed for life. How many people have to die to have peace?
I thought I heard in this news broadcast that there is a lady that is feeding people's pets that have fled the town! This is Canada, why did they not take their pets with them? This is upsetting that people are leaving their pets behind to suffer in a smoke and toxic filled town.
All planned . How did ya think they were going to get all those counrty people to move out of the country and into 15 min cities .
All man made these fires , and too bad the news don’t investigate anymore but just report what there told very sad but I don’t watch the news anymore for that reason there bought bye TURDO
Anything happens, blame Russia and China. Whatever the governments failed and couldn't face their people, blame Russia and China.
We are sick and tired of the western media, apart from defame and blame on someone, can we do something good first, such as focus on your own people's needs? The media, should report the truth not to make up stories.
Can’t wait for the warming to hurry up. Left my truck on idle for 2 hours
All these natural disasters are signs of Jesus's return. God 's wrath comes upon humans as we sin against Him. We disown and mock Him, we twist the truth and distort the order of human nature. We do whatever we feel fit just like the people in Sodom and Gomorrah. God uses fire and water to cleanse the earth. It is only the beginning. Wake up, people. It's time to confess our sins. We should repent and ask for forgiveness.
Looks and sounds like Hawaii eh!
So much evil!
Defund mainstream media!👍🏻😁✋🏻
Woke up and stubbed my toe this morning.
Russia! Will Putin never stop?!?!?!?!?!
You are reporters please take the time to look up Climate warming The fires are all over the world They are set by our government They want us so scared will do anything to stop the problems There is no climate warming There sucking the oxygen out of the air Take 5 min and look at all the fires around the world This was probably done because Trudeau needs more time to make laws
Good bye Hay River👋
At 14:16 the little boy got his fingers pinched between the seats, the mother just ignored him.😡
What is Murican big oil doing about 1 million uncapped oil well, emitting carbons for DECADES wothoit any TAX? I bet there are some here too…
Why no new helicopter videos of current conditions and fire progress? Even air plane video is non existent?
…theres no more land, than there was, in the last 100000 years, we fought fires, by hand, for decades, but somehow, with our massive population today, we cant manage, the exact same amount of land when it is on fire?
Make it, make sense
Ask the NWT Premier where all they money went she received the past 5 years?
NO receipts for $ Billions of tax money taken from Canadian workers and businesses!
Why did RCMP tell everyone to leave their pets?
Speal with Evacuees around Edmonton, RCMP went door to door and scrambled people and specifically told them to leave pets as they would be returning soon
It's shocking that oil companies knew in the '70's, that this would be the result of their greed for profit.It's absolutely heartbreaking that our planet our mother is being destroyed like this. I lived five years in the territories. The people of these areas are bearing the brunt of past profit decisions. It's all happening, and its just the beginning.I pray everyone can come home soon. Thank Creator for the return of the Totem pole. May our people all over Turtle Island have our bundles and sacred things returned.
Old logging habits from the past are taking an adverse effect? Plus treed areas on the outskirts of Cities? 🤔
The costs rising… I'm more suspicious of this than some crazy notion that drought fueled fires are being set. Why is everything insanely expensive? Why did Covid cause massive profits for real estate? Why is food costing three to four times as much? Price gouging…
How can an entire country not be able to put out a fire???
I have my class 3 licence with 6 years experience. Fly me out and show me how to work the hose.
More Carbon Taxes will stop fake climate change in its tracks
If we all lived 12,000 years ago we'd think the ice age was normal, right! 6,000 years ago the same. And not know 6-12,000 years later the receding ice was actually the fault of SUV loving Americans, faceless corporations and a government with too much crown protected land not being taken care of. Yes/No? Mother Nature is far superior to us all, and has shown her wicked ways for millions of years. This is a blip in time. You'll survive as a species, however your mind may not.
Global news all left lies
Why have they not cut the trees back and. Fire. proofed their homes
Build. Firebreaks
35 degrees C, I live in the tropics and it is 30 C. It does not look good.
Global News, Trudeau's other state funded propaganda media. Please report the truth 😢
