Brunswick Creek Fire Spreads Fast | Vancouver News

A fast-moving wildfire near Boston Bar, B.C., sparked by human activity, is forcing evacuations and choking the region with smoke. Blown by 40-50 km/h winds, the Brunswick Creek fire has surged north, sparing North Bend but threatening nearby communities. The Boothroyd Indian Band has issued a full evacuation order, while air quality warnings now blanket the southern Fraser Canyon. Firefighters battle new spot fires and protect structures amid treacherous terrain and poor visibility—planes are sidelined for safety. More resources and an incident management team are urgently requested. Highway 1 remains open, but local roads east of the river are closed.
