It is wonderful to believe ive had the Good Opportunity to work with so many of these people here at this library, first in washington and then here at the library over those 19 years and longer. So he wanted the president wanted this library to be a place of study and of community and thats what we can say like this. Certainly evidence. I dont want to talk too long for you. So let me go over the format real quickly. Therell be a 30 minute talk, 30 minutes, and then well have a brief question and answer period. And then the author will go into the library to sign books. If you want to purchase them in our new deal store. And let me introduce our speaker, david kissinger. Youre not spelled kissinger as i was told, chris, in your show. Okay.

0llie, thank you so much forjoining us, especially under these circumstances. Now, i understand youve been able to flee these fires. Just bring us up to date in terms of what took place, what happened and how youre coping where are you now . Yeah, so i am now in a small village called fort simpson, which is about 630 kilometres west of yellowknife. It probably sounds like a huge distance it really isnt in Northwest Territories terms. This place is twice the size of france, its got 16,000 people in it, so vast scales that were talking about. This is essentially three communities to the left of yellowknife. And you can just hear a float plane into the distance, by the way. This is the Mackenzie River behind me. Yellowknife under a full Evacuation Order, as you probably heard, yesterday. We came out here a day before because, to be frank, the writing has been on the wall for days that that wildfire was going to pose a grave threat. What were you seeing that led you to think, hey, i better

Yellowknife under a full evacuation order, as you probably heard, yesterday. We came out here a day before because, to be frank, the writing has been on the wall for days that that wildfire was going to pose a grave threat. Ok, so theres a huge lake called great slave lake. Yellowknife is on the top of it. Then, at the other side of that lake its a very large lake you have two communities called fort smith and hay river. Together, they have got about 7000 people in them. On saturday and sunday last weekend, they were both told to evacuate. Thousands of people fleeing down the highway to alberta, where they still are. We have no timeline for when people might be able to get back to
