And pose a real threat. Yellowknife is now blanketed in smoke and fires are burning close to the one major road into and out of the city. Rebecca alty is the mayor of yellowknife. She told us what things were like there. Right now, its residents are evacuating by road. As many people as possible are doing that. Theres also, for folks who dont have vehicles, we are starting the air evacuations, so flights. We still have commercial flights, so some people have booked onto a commercial flight, but we have the Evacuation Flights also starting at 1pm. So getting folks registered for that just began an hour ago. So folks have been good, theres long line ups i think there was kilometres worth of a line up, so a bit of a snail s place out of town, its just one road in, one road out. That highway is where the fire is, so the highway can close. But right now, it is open. If the conditions change, if the smoke gets too heavy, if the fire were to approach the highway, the highway would be closed a

If we just move over here i want to give you a picture of these dry conditions here on the island of maui. You can see there the dry grass, the drought here, which has been a persistent problem for many months. You can also see the high winds.

I think its been a huge embarrassment to the world rugby, and i think the way this has been handled, this is a problem with our own making. Itjust adds to the confusion about what is safe and is not safe. On the Community Level is much as anything else and thats always where our major concern is because Commu
