While we have received some recent rain, forest conditions remain very dry. Additional rain is forecast over the next few days but it is not yet known whether it will be enough to improve conditions.
The fire ban remains in effect until further notice. Thank you for you cooperation and help in keeping our community safe.

Do you know the difference between a fire zone and a fire ban?

It has been extremely dry even with the bit of rain we've had. If you are going to light off fire works tonight, please be safe about it!

Huge shoutout to the awesome crew at BMFD! 🎆
​While everyone knows they keep us safe during our Canada Day fireworks, their hard work starts long before the first spark. Today, the team crushed it—filling over 100 sandbags in record time to secure and stabilize the launch site. Incredible teamwork, fierce dedication, and pure community pride. Thank you for always having our backs! 🇨🇦❤️ ...and Thank you Tom P. for buying us all an ice cream! 🍦👍

🚒 Exciting News for Bruce Mines! 🧩

We are thrilled to share that the Bruce Mines Fire Department has been selected to receive a complimentary First Responder Sensory Support Kit!

These specialized kits—developed by the Fire Marshal’s Public Fire Safety Council (FMPFSC) in partnership with Autism Canada—are designed to help our team better assist autistic and neurodivergent individuals during emergencies, ensuring safer and more compassionate interactions.

Emergencies are inherently stressful, but for someone on the Autism Spectrum, the intense sensory overload can lead to a severe meltdown or shutdown. By providing tactile and sensory items, these kits offer a vital tool to help individuals self-regulate, remain calm, and process highly emotional situations safely.

This initiative reflects our ongoing commitment to serving every member of our community with the tailored care, dignity, and understanding they deserve.

A huge thank you to the FMPFSC, Autism Canada, and North City Insurance Brokers for their generous donation of 200 kits to 65 departments across Ontario. We are incredibly grateful for these resources to help us better serve everyone in our community! ❤️
