So this is the state of BC at the moment, we have fires all around us and whilst none are an immediate threat to myself and my wife, the biggest issue we are facing, is the main Hydro plant that supplies electricity to not just our city, but the entire province of BC is totally surround by a massive out of control fire and daily, the threat looms that the hydroplant is going to get caught directly, if that happens, the entire province goes dark, not just for a few days, but depending on the extent of the damage, it could be weeks. Not only are we also in the middle of a massive heat wave and very reliant on the air conditioning, but obviously we won't be able to cook and more worrying for me, as a Type 1 Diabetic, my insulin has to be refrigerated. This is a very dire time, so if there is no video this week, you know why!!!

😢 hoping that all of this calms down and is sorted soon. To a lesser extent the Cairngorms are in a wildfire emergency and villages were evacuated. The world is burning 😭
