Wildfires spreading on Canada's east and west coasts have forced hundreds from their homes and left one community in southern Newfoundland cut off from the rest of the island.
A forest fire that has been burning for close to two weeks has triggered a state of emergency and an outdoor fire ban in central Newfoundland.
N.L. Premier Andrew Furey says the flames aren't currently expected to directly impact any communities, but wind changes are raising air quality concerns.
Meanwhile, wildfires on the outskirts of the southern Okanagan region, about 21 kilometres southwest of Penticton, has prompted an evacuation order of more than 500 properties.
