Canadian Forest Lockdowns?

Friends north of the boarder, just saw something stating that in Nova Scotia it’s not illegal to enter a forest and unnecessary activities like hunting camping hiking fishing are all now off limits and carry a $25,000 fine for violating. What’s up with that??
The video said the justification was due to wildfires that burned 200 homes. But it’s gotta be more than that.

Anyhow, if that’s really true and that you can’t even hike in the forest, how crap that sucks.

I think it is true. Far to dry and to many fires to take chances. I am in the west(Saskatchewan) and we have evacuated settlements of over 2000 residents.

There have been forest closures in alberta before as well, once you see how these fires can go, and how stupid people can be in starting them, it just has to be done when the conditions are extreme. The government isn't capable of every day life, far less any involved conspiracy theories.
