VICTORIA: Canadian officials declared a state of emergency Saturday after a fast-moving wildfire forced the overnight evacuation of more than 20,000 people in the western province of British Columbia. Winds fanned the Bald Range wildfire to grow rapidly late Friday, pushing flames into the Summerland area and affecting communities throughout the surrounding valleys. We also know that some people became trapped as conditions changed quickly," British Columbia Premier David Eby said in a statement Saturday. "The federal government stands ready to help and support the government of British Columbia in these efforts. The fire was first reported early Friday evening, and Eby warned Saturday it "remains extremely active and significant challenges remain."
