Inevitably there will be more fires, as there will be a longer period for spring fires . As for the intensity of the fires, it is too early to predict it, because it could be offset by the rain, mentions Stéphane Caron.
He recalls that in Quebec, 80% of forest fires are caused by human actions. The spring period is particularly auspicious. Mr. Caron deplores that many citizens still choose to burn their waste during this season, which is a very risky practice. Every year, as many as 75 forest fires are started this way.
