🔥 IMPORTANT NOTICE: Provincewide Burn Ban in Effect 🔥

The Province of Nova Scotia has announced a provincewide burn ban, effective Wednesday, July 30 at 2 p.m. and continuing until further notice.

This ban applies to all open fires, including:

• Campfires

• Brush burning

• Backyard fires

• Fire pits

The ban is in place to protect communities, wildlife, and emergency responders due to ongoing dry conditions across the province.
