Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) called for twice as many Forest Service personnel to be deployed to Canada on Thursday to help fight the hundreds of wildfires fueling a smoky haze over the eastern U.S.

“These unprecedented wildfires are a crisis for both Canada and the United States, so both nations must respond speedily and forcefully to contain the blazes,” Schumer said on the Senate floor. “The best way to ensure the U.S. does not suffer another wave of wildfire air pollution is to contain these fires up in Canada as soon as possible.”

While you’re handing out free cell phones, EBT Cards, and relocation housing, to illegal immigrants, give them a bucket and a shovel. They can put out the wildfires in no time.

illegal immigrants, give them a bucket and a shovel. They can put out the wildfires in no time.

Yep, all 20 million of them.

If it was blowing across Floridia or Texas he wouldn’t give 2 shits.

I guess if the state of New York is issuing millions of free N95 masks, this is something to worry about? I live further south, and have certainally noticed the difference in color of the atmosphere, and sunsets.

Why not put out Chinese fires, or Brazilian rain forest fires, or $hithole African nation fires while we are at it?

Constant Crisis is a symptom of incompetent management.

Sometimes Constant Crisis is a terroristic management tool to motivate the troops when their straightforward simple cooperation fails due to management incompetence in the past.

Which is it, Schmuckie?

[mountainlion]

He wants to get some of the money laundering too.

[Dogbert41]

You fight these wildfires before they begin by “FOREST MANAGEMENT”.

LOGGING.

[struggle]

Maybe stop the arsonists instead?

[FlingWingFlyer]

Why don’t Chucky get his goatsmellin’ ass out there on the fire line?

Gee shouldn’t the Global Climate Change advocates fight that battle? After all it’s to save the earth…… Come on Castro Junior get out there

LOGGING.

what, and bring lumber prices down so more affordable homes are built?

[ConservativeInPA]

Canada is welcome to Schumer. I’ll pay for him to move to Ottawa.

[dragonblustar]

Watched a video of a retired Canadian firefighter saying the government is preventing these fires to be stopped. This is all deliberate and it’s going to get worse.

If, as Trudope says, it was due to climate change so then let climate change take care of it.
