More Forest Fire Help

More out-of-provinces resources are arriving to help battle several forest fires in northwestern Ontario's far north.

One hundred firefighters from British Columbia arrived Tuesday with another one hundred expected later this week.

The Ministry of Natural Resources is also receiving additional air support from Alberta who's loaning two waterbombers and light aircraft.

They'll join a fleet of waterbombers already in from Quebec.
