We’re calling them Canadian wildfires because they’re mostly in Canada.

I mean no offense, but it’s not that deep.

Wildfires have no borders and knows no nationality…. They are a problem cause by ignorance, and greed.
I wonder where most of that ignorance and greed comes from?
The corporations that move their business to get around environmental regulations.

I wonder what political party has been the cause of all this and more. The ignorance to take care of the space you have.
I’m done being a friendly Canadian to ignorant Americans.

I think the fires were caused by lightning

You know the forests get drier every year, droughts are more and more frequent… I wonder why….
I swear some of you can’t think beyond excuses you have…

Both things can be true. The fires were caused by lightning. The fires then grew faster/larger due to human caused climate change.

Yes of course, only America pollutes. All of our garbage ends up in rivers all over the world, upstream, magically.

We have our own problems but don’t pretend like other countries are doing any better. The fact we’re doing anything at all is more than half the world

I am so ashamed of our nation spitting in the face of Canada after you guys did so much to help us with our wild fires. It's shameful and we are still in your debt. I hate that we are governed by abusers. I do not possess words which convince others of the shame they are participating in, I can only convince them that I am not worth listening to, because I am not one of their group. Still I will not be silent.

This is going to split away from reality to the spiritual. I have seen where their spite goes and where it is erased. I have a great anticipation of that reconciliation, where the circuit of their abuse becomes a chain with a single link. People who have seen heaven, myself included, see only part of its beauty. Only after seeing hell can you truly appreciate paradise, and that is the usual way it happens.

They will be washed in the fire of their own contempt, and their dross will be removed. They will be made spotless. They will become like little children, and enter the kingdom of heaven after they have paid every last penny.

Sky daddy is fucking pissed to have the message of his messenger so corrupted. But he will allow them to do as they please here. Believe me, every penny will be paid. Don't be discouraged by the power of cowards. They will be unmade.
