Parks Canada says the Hay Camp Road is closed inside Wood Buffalo National Park while crews deal with an active wildfire nearby.

The NWT government says it won't release its formal response to a review of GNWT actions during the 2023 wildfire season while 2025's fires are still a threat.
A union representing 32 Hay River and Fort Providence firefighters says they are paid less than GNWT counterparts. The issue is heading to binding arbitration.
The checkpoint outside Fort Providence has been lifted and hundreds of evacuees are being welcomed home. Hay River now starts derigging its hosting operation.
Dehcho MLA Sheryl Yakeleya says the response to wildfire SS014 and the support the GNWT has offered to Fort Providence evacuees has been "inadequate."
If conditions are right, NWT Fire hopes to use a planned burn on Tuesday to help protect Highway 1 from wildfire FS014 outside Fort Simpson.
