Jasper, Alberta is one of the most beautiful places in the world.

It will regenerate, but this is a huge loss.

@Anemone

i know😭😭😭

i've been reading about it. what a loss.

@Anemone which could have largely been prevented if alberta's govt didn't have a stick up its ass.

@Anemone oh noooo, truly is heartbreaking to see. So traumatic… 💔

@Anemone What a tragedy! I used to go to Jasper often when I lived in Edmonton. I took my dad there the year before he died to see the mountains and we saw so many mountain goats on the highway! Truly a shame. Thanks for cutting the budgets for fighting forest fires Smith!

@Anemone it's horrific. 💔 One of the most beautiful places turned to ash. I hate that this feels familiar. It brings me back to the destruction when Fort McMurray burned.

💔 this is awful and terrifying, I read one of the articles detailing how ferocious it was :/ @Anemone

@Anemone

Smith was in tears at the news conference about it.

First time I have seen her being honest.

@disk4mat Her party is the scorched earth party, I feel no empathy for her. Their denialism has been a major factor these events. @Anemone

@Tacitus_Kilgore @Anemone

I can't stand her or the ucp and do what I can for others to try and beat her.

I do believe she was that emotional today as everyone is.

Course first planted press question was who is responsible for action the prov or the feds.

@disk4mat I hate to be cynical but a portion of the tears shed was she knows this will hurt her politically. @Anemone
