PLEASE NOTE: The 2025 wildfire season started March 15. During the fire season, the Burning Restrictions and the Fire Weather Index are updated daily with information and restrictions on domestic burning and larger industrial burning. You must check the Burn Restrictions or call 1-800-237-5053 before starting a Category 1 fire.  Please be responsible with your fires. For further information on fire safety and FireSmart, visit our Fire Information page. 

Always check your municipal bylaws, or contact your municipal office, before doing any type of burning. Your municipality may have a burning restriction that overrides the provincial burning map restrictions.

This page is updated daily at 2pm during fire season from March 15 to November 15. It is not updated from November 16 to March 14.

Please visit the recreational campfires webpage for more information on campfires.
