Jasper National Park, a world heritage site near Kananaskis where this year’s G7 meeting will be held, was the site of a devastating wildfire in 2024 and a source of controversy regarding the federal government’s mismanagement of the situation.
On Thursday’s Rebel Roundup livestream, hosts Sheila Gunn Reid and Lise Merle shared their thoughts on Carney’s G7 announcement of the world leaders’ wildfire discussion.
“Are they going to talk about their own negligence and park mismanagement that make the forest fires exponentially worse?” asked Lise. “About their complicity? I bet not.”
