Wildfires are causing significant destruction across northern Saskatchewan, with long-term implications for the province's forestry industry. According to Forest Saskatchewan, wildfires have burned approximately 900,000 hectares of forest. The forestry sector supports approximately 12,000 jobs in Saskatchewan, and the impact of these wildfires may threaten both job stability and access to alternative timber zones. The damage extends beyond logging, affecting recreational areas and traditional lands vital to Indigenous communities.
