Having fought wildland fires for the better part of 35 years, that many fires, this early in the season, starting within a short period of time and clustered as they are, without any significant lightning, it is definitely man caused, and without any other extenuating circumstances, most likely a "public-private partnership", meant to instill climate passion.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to start a fire, especially when they can flood the zone with a high quantity, so any handful of climate wackos, given half a day of information, could easily pull this off.

But knowing when and where, would require some level of training, experience and organization. For that, I would lean towards the CAN gov't using the easily radicalized as their implementation.

I will have to take a closer look.

John, the same thing happened in the US Western states during the BLM(not run by B's)/antifa riots the summer of 2020. I had a time lapse video of the fires starting on satellite from North to South over 1000 miles, always at night.

Of course it was God angry that his angelic son George Floyd had been so struck down in the prime of his felonious potential. The liestream news claimed "Dry Lightning" since there were no storms.

"Dry Lightning" over 1000 miles overnight. I shit you not.

For the blanket of 'climate change' that wraps all tyrannies into one snuggly future of subservience. DEWs. State on behalf of non state. Same in CA, OR, WA, ID, MT since at least 2015. OR you know, magic lightning bolts, followed by magic flames that only strike and burn houses and leave trees alone.

If it is arson, then I tend to think it was committed by the Canadian government for the reasons to which you refer. Actually, and more accurately perhaps, those parts of the state machine that work in symbiosis with the parasite class who make up the NGO complex. These creatures are entirely dependent on "current things" for their income and status so it makes sense that, every so often, they have to remind the weary and cynical public just how essential they really are.

By the by, a lot of our problems resolve down to this parasite class and not elected governments as such. Mass immigration is another example.

I live in the central Midwest and we have billboards along the highway that have, for the past few days, said some mumbo-jumbo about "an ozone alert." Obvious climate doomer propaganda, and until I read this article, I didn't know about the fires in Canada. It wouldn't surprise me if there's a correlation there. Climate Cultism will replace Covid Cultism for 2024.

As a hypothesis I'd say that it sounds plausible. The wider society is highly combustible given the mixture of anomie, ideology, spite and opportunism. Throw in social media and mass media and it all becomes unstable very fast. There is also a vast amount of money to made from disasters...especially by NGOs and the disaster-capitalism complex.

Trust your instincts, John. I hope that you don't mind me giving you advice, but here I'll go. Prepare to flee. Nothing you own is worth a day in a burns ward. Nothing.

Bushfires are terrible. I live very close to a poorly managed native forest in a city where several suburbs were literally reduced to ashes in a near apocalyptic bush-fire 20 years ago (seems like yesterday!!!).

If you are safe, chill. The best thing about bushfires is the sight of an orange-red moon at night. In a sense it transforms into Barsoom. A sign, perhaps?

I prefer the schizodox interpretation of an earth unsettled by sin producing synchronic weather anomalies and wish-fulfilling heat spikes. This isn't arson: it's obviously the ongoing evictions at Kiev's Monastery of the Caves complex manifesting in sporadic and spontaneous combustions.

Environmental terrorists or just the powers that be accelerating the agenda by geoengineering. Here in the midwestern hell of Illinois we have gone several weeks without rain.

Guess they are trying to keep the crops from growing in the farmlands of Illinois, Iowa and Missouri as they set Canada on fire. Starve and burn them out. Works every time!!!!

Don't get me wrong on Illinois, it would be a nice state if it wasn't for the idiot politicians that run it and Chicago.

I didn’t know Canada was on fire until we started getting air quality alerts a few weeks ago, which we never do until the heat really hits in late June or July. And I’m in more of the desert in the southwest US. We’ve been unseasonably cool and our fire season hasn’t even remotely started. My money’s on unnatural causation.

Maybe calculating burned area from satellite data (first graph) is also subject to manipulation. Smoke occludes the images, so there must be substantial modeling.

Edit: These calculations are not foolproof, as the 2021 fire total shows. In the 2nd half of the Aug-Sep period, the area actually drops by a small amount, which shouldn't be possible. It's possible that the 2023 area is also eventually adjusted downwards, but by a larger amount. Beware of "Bayesian updating" AKA "Bayesian rug-pulling". https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rse.2019.111295

Read somewhere that after wildfires in Yakutia, mining companies moved in. Be interesting to see if there are minerals or other desirable resources in the areas that are burning now.

If this is an op, it's a stupid op. People don't even remember Nord Stream. If they're banking on people connecting the dots, they're going to be disappointed.

Has anybody noticed (in Hamilton since last fall) all the usual vapour trails have largely stopped? Also, all of last year was the worst year for that blinding white hot sun (normal sun this spring so far). I mean just looking anywhere near the sun was akin to leaving the optometrist after getting those drops to diate ones pupils.

Oh, is it the climate catastrophe now?

When I was in high school about a decade ago, it was global warming.

Later on it started morphing into climate change.

I found out that in the '70s it was global cooling.

Considering all those name changes, I think they're just fooling.

In my opinion, at this point, the belief that people are causing the weather to change and irreversibly fucking up the world is more a religious dogma than a reasoned belief - a "good fight" that needs to be fought both because it is good, and that humans need a fight.

They are planning this for Australia in the summer. Same pattern.

Meanwhile it is winter and where I live in South Australia the government forestry is burning off pine plantation waste from harvest instead of the normal mulching protocol. They have done this during a strong northerly weather pattern that is blowing the smoke out to sea where nobody sees it.

The media blackout has not heard locals resistance to this hypercritical 'net zero's plan. Instead, concerned citizens have been ignored or harassed and threatened by police and forestry workers.

You won't need hundreds or a hundred. A dozen at the most. You don't even need fancy stuff like timed devices.

I'm not going to describe how to rig a fire to smolder discreetly for hours, days or even weeks, no need to spread that knowledge, but 6-12 people, two in each car, looking like hikers would be enough.

Consider this: there is a 1:1 overlap between Antifa and Extinction Rebellion. Antifa trains operatives in urban combat, the making of pipe-bombs, how to stalk and assault political opponents when they arevulnerable and how to conduct information warfare to get people virtually unpersoned and disowned even by family.

This I know due to a youth spent among such persons/groups. For every twenty hangers-on and sloganeers, you have 1 true believer willing to go the distance no matter what. Back then, the establishment hadn't co-opted the groups, something they set about to with a vengeance during the various summits around the millennium (the Gothenburg riots in 2001 was a watershed-moment here). By 2005, all "autonomous" groups be they big or small, global or local, from Greenpeace, Amnesty and the Red Cross to "save the city park" were fully infiltrated.

By now, any group starting to get pull or positive press is either co-opted, smeared if that doesn't work, or is astroturf from the get-go.

Trust me when I say that convincing a dozen college graduates in their mid-twenties that setting wildfires to save the planet is a cakewalk.

Hel, Putin used to train german intellectuals in how to become urban guerillas and terrorists during his stint as KGB-liaison to West German terrorist groups, and there's no such thing as an ex-KGB (something to consider for anyone watching the clip with Yuri Bezmenov, by the way), nor has Russia ever stopped trying to cause chaos.

(Not saying it's Russia, just pointing out that their grand strategy against enemies they cannot reach is always "cause chaos and destruction", it's always been too.)

You don't even need cars, bikes will do.

Bikes, no GPS, no trackable phones, no nothing and police and secret services are nowadays so addicted to techno-fetishism they have forgotten the basics.

Let me guess that Canada is experiencing never before heard of levels of vandalism/theft/arson against power facilities and water ditto too?

Just like every single western nation. If you check which nations are being targetted with the nations that in some way participated in WW2, you'll notice that it - the wokeness, the multikulti-agenda, the climate hysteria, et cetera only happens in those nations.

Almost as if someone with a grudge had an agenda. Dangerous line of thinking, no?
