(THUNDER BAY, ON) - The Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) continues to assist the Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) with evacuation efforts in several northwestern Ontario communities as ongoing wildfires continue to threaten affected areas.
Individuals living in areas under mandatory evacuation orders have been asked to leave their residence immediately and seek safety away from active fires. Other communities are being monitored, and residents are urged to stay informed and be prepared to act quickly should further evacuation orders or advisories be issued. Additional information will be issued as it becomes available.
