Reporting from British Columbia, Ezra Levant of TheRebel.media notes that over 1000 fires -- started by lightning and camp fires -- have burned up to 300,000 hectares of Canadian forests this season.

Despite what environmentalists are trying to tell the public, these fires have nothing to do with global warming. What they don't mention is that for every hectare that's burned in these fires, about 100 tonnes of carbon dioxide is emitted. And that amount is equal to all the supposedly evil C02 emitted for an entire year by Alberta's oil sands companies.
