Canada Wildfires: British Columbia declares emergency due to raging and spreading wildfires
A state of emergency has been declared in Canada's western British Columbia province, as a fast-moving wildfire threatens to destroy more homes in the area around the city of West Kelowna.
The premier of the Canadian province of British Columbia declared a state of emergency, saying authorities there were "facing the worst wildfire season ever", as thousands were evacuated from cities east of Vancouver.
Premier David Eby said last night: "Over the past 24 hours, the situation has evolved rapidly, and we are in for an extremely challenging situation in the days ahead." Officials have said the next 24 to 48 hours could be the most difficult.
Earlier the airspace in the area was closed to clear the way for water bombers.

Markers of a Good , Sushi Restaurant.
HuffPost spoke with sushi chefs to find out what makes a good, and bad, sushi establishment.
Sushi Rice.
Expertly prepared sushi rice retains its delicate, fluffy texture. The seasoning is perfectly balanced with a touch of sweet, tart and brininess. It is served at about 37 degrees Celsius ― body temperature, Hidekazu Tojo, the chef at Tojo’s Restaurant in Vancouver, via HuffPost.
Bad sushi rice would be "undercooked,
too sweet, too salty or too dry.".
Seafood Quality.
If the server or chef highlights seasonal sushi in addition to the menu, that is a good sign for the sushi program, Masaharu Morimoto, who owns Japanese restaurants
around the world, via HuffPost.
Warning signs for poor fish
quality are things like discoloration, browning and a lack of firmness, Elijah Lehrer, sushi chef and vice president of culinary
at Bamboo Sushi, via HuffPost.
Chef Skill.
Skillful sushi chefs can also
indicate a good sushi restaurant. Fresh grating wasabi for some sushi courses is a good sign here. Describing each piece of fish in its Japanese and English name shows the attention to detail there, too, Masaharu Morimoto, who owns Japanese restaurants
around the world, via HuffPost.
“Poorly made sushi shows a lack of passion and good training,” Morimoto said. .
Price.
Good quality seafood comes
at a cost, and unfortunately, costs continue
to rise. Offering sushi at very low prices suggests that the restaurant may not be
sourcing high-quality ingredients, Hidekazu Tojo, the chef at Tojo’s Restaurant in Vancouver, via HuffPost.
The experts say cleanliness and hospitality are also things to consider, just as you likely
would with other food establishments
