It is disgusting and absurd to blame Australia's bushfires on climate change policy.

So yes, we have big fires but we don't beg for money from the rest of the world. We take care of ourselves.

About 120 forest fire fighters from my province are in Australia now(not sure which states) to fight the bushfires..



When we had the massive Fort McMurray wild fires, Australians came here to help..



I don't consider that begging for money......it's helping friends in times of need.

No, not the firefighters, money has been raised from around the world... 23 million so far.







30 million now.

Quote from: "TheVancouverGuy"How are our Australian friends doing? I just read the biggest evacuation in Australia. Animals dead. State of emergency.


My heart is completely broken.



Also today on the news from Kangaroo Island, two dead... 80 year old pilot and his 43 yr old plastic surgeon son.



I can't even speak about the fires. It's all stuck in my chest.


Praying, this is awful.  My heart goes out to you all.

The destruction of the wildlife kills me the most...Humans can rebuild but some of our native animals and birds are on the brink of extinction.
