Raging Wildfire Engulfs Jasper, Alberta: A Perfect Storm of Destruction

 

In a devastating turn of events, a wildfire that began 12 kilometers away from Jasper, Alberta, transformed into an unstoppable force, leaving firefighters powerless.

The situation in Jasper is dire, with potentially 30% to 50% structural damage. Authorities are now faced with the daunting task of rebuilding a community that has been ravaged by this natural disaster.
