It’s fire ban season in Saskatchewan.
On Wednesday, the municipalities of Corman Park and Vanscoy implemented a ban on open flames due to dry conditions.
The ban includes fire pits, burning barrels, controlled burns and fireworks, with the only exceptions being internal household fireplaces and gas-fuelled equipment such as a propane barbecue or propane fire pit.
Asquith firefighter Darren Kraft said several departments were called to help put out a grass fire south of Vanscoy on Wednesday evening. He said people need to be extremely cautious right now.
“It is so dry out there, it is unbelievable,” he told C95.
