Canada is BURNING! Videos Show Apocalyptic Visuals Of Nova Scotia Raging In Wildfires, WATCH here

Heart-wrenching visuals are coming straight from Canada’s province of Nova Scotia, in which the whole city has been burning in raging wildfires. The fire has destroyed several houses and forced over 16,000 Canadians to evacuate their homes. According to media reports, around 16,400 people have been forced to leave their homes near Halifax, Nova Scotia’s largest city. The blaze also led officials to declare a local state of emergency in Halifax late on Sunday.

Moreover, the fires, which span a total of more than 25,000 acres and have been deemed ”out of control” by officials, have destroyed at least 200 buildings and caused huge plumes of smoke to tower over the region. More than 200 crews from agencies across the province have been sent to help battle the blaze. Fortunately, there hadn’t been any reports of deaths or injuries.

Taking to social media, several residents posted videos of the wildfire which they have described as ”aggressive” and ”apocalyptic.”

PM calls it “incredibly serious”

The Canadian Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau called the wildfires ”incredibly serious” in his tweet.

The PM tweeted, ” ”The wildfire situation in Nova Scotia is incredibly serious – and we stand ready to provide any federal support and assistance needed. We’re keeping everyone affected in our thoughts, and we’re thanking those who are working hard to keep people safe.”

As per the official release, every household required to evacuate will receive $500 administered through the Canadian Red Cross.

“Our hearts go out to everyone impacted by these fires. We know you are experiencing uncertainty and distress. We see that and want to try to ease a small portion of the financial stress. This funding can help with urgent needs such as food and personal care items while people are displaced,” said Premier Houston.

Several experts have pointed to climate change as a factor that has worsened extreme weather such as wildfires, heatwaves, and tropical storms around the world.
