Growing wildfires in northern Manitoba prompted three communities to declare states of emergency and begin evacuations over the weekend. Lynn Lake residents were told to leave the community on Saturday. In an update on Sunday night, the town said “a significant step forward” was taken as burn operations began in the community. Nearly 110 members of Marcel Colomb First Nation, less than 50 kilometres outside of Lynne Lake, were also evacuated Sunday. Jason Small of the Canadian Red Cross joins Global News with more on his organization’s response efforts.
