Mr. Speaker, Canadians across the country are watching as wildfires rage across central and northern Alberta. Frontline responders are courageously fighting the fires and evacuating communities. Tens of thousands of Albertans have been forced from their homes. Could the government update the House on what support it is offering the province in this trying time?

Mr. Speaker, our thoughts are with all Albertans during this difficult time. The Canadian Armed Forces have deployed approximately 300 members to assist with fighting fires, as well as air lifts and engineering supports. We are also making sure to match Red Cross donations. The Prime Minister is in Alberta today, and we will continue to stand with Albertans during their time of need.
