“News story in [September 2th 2026] [Canadian newspaper] ‘The Globe and Mail’ [link above] regarding the lack of data to support assessments of wildfire risk. Article entitled: Canadians are in the dark about their wildfire risk.
Just a note for those interested in national forest datasets that can be used to inform on forest conditions especially as pertains to wildfire risk, numerous facets of forests (land cover, species, structure, change, likelihood to burn) can be found here: https://opendata.nfis.org/mapserver/nfis-change_eng.html
These satellite-derived integrated open access datasets are spatially exhaustive over the 650 million Ha forest dominated ecosystems of Canada. While possibly not on target for the authors' use case, many information needs and questions can be satisfied with these data. Most datasets are pixel based (30 x 30 m cells, about 1/10th of a Ha), but there is also a polygon-based, forest-inventory-like database (SBFI) a form possibly more familiar to modelers…”

“Experts and politicians are endorsing a national strategy on wildfire hazard mapping [across Canada], but the process would be far from simple…
[T]he scale of the danger is largely invisible to most Canadians until it’s too late. Though some wildfire hazard mapping is publicly available in B.C., there is a patchwork of incomplete data. And in the rest of the country, such information is virtually non-existent…
Experts warn that a failure by governments to make detailed hazard mapping publicly available has left towns and cities across the country more vulnerable to the threat of extreme wildfires. Without the information, communities continue to build new housing in high-hazard areas even as critical mitigation efforts are frequently delayed...
But some critics worry governments may not be up to the complicated task. And even when there is an earnest effort to improve public data, officials can face significant backlash as property owners fear financial consequences. Fire officials in Oregon [USA] were forced to largely abandon detailed hazard mapping after trying to make better information publicly available.
There is no denying the trendline: Climate change is driving wildfires that are faster and hotter than ever before, and disasters like the Bald Range fire are becoming more common. Are Canadians ready to open their eyes to the risk?...”

Bankrupt them and ban them.

I haven’t seen one coherent argument as to why we can’t. We do not have to accept this.

We prohibit and ban dangerous consumer products all the time. The lawsuits should fly and our governments need to step up to protect Canadians.

“British Columbia's attorney general says she's shocked by an article describing alleged interactions between the Tumbler Ridge mass shooter and ChatGPT, in which the AI chatbot vividly describes the effectiveness of a shotgun in a classroom.

The news report, in U.S.-based magazine Mother Jones, also says ChatGPT advised shooter 18-year-old Jesse Van Rootselaar how to get around its own safeguards to obtain information about violent scenarios by framing the content as fictional.

… the details in the article, which does not describe its sources, are "shocking and, as a parent, they are worse" than she ever imagined.“
