Largest active wildfires in Canada right now

Active wildfires listed right now across Canada โ€” official agency data via Natural Resources Canada and the BC Wildfire Service. Tap any fire for live details including maps, size in hectares, and stage of control.

For awareness only โ€” not an evacuation source. Fire locations and distances use the agency-reported point, which does not move as a fire spreads โ€” a large fire's edge can be kilometres from its mapped point. For evacuation orders and real-time alerts, follow your local government and provincial emergency officials, and call 911 for emergencies. Data: NRCan CWFIF + BC Wildfire Service.

How Canadian agencies report fires

Stage of control, not containment %
OC = Out of control ยท BH = Being held ยท UC = Under control. We show the official code exactly as reported โ€” Canadian stages don't translate into U.S.-style containment percentages, so we never convert them.
Sizes in hectares
Canadian agencies measure fires in hectares. One hectare is about two and a half acres.
A flame is a pin, not the fire
Each flame marks where a fire was reported, not where its edge is right now โ€” real fires spread, markers don't move. For evacuations, follow your provincial emergency authorities and 911.

Fire data: Natural Resources Canada โ€” Canadian Wildland Fire Information Framework (CWFIF), under the Open Government Licence โ€“ Canada. U.S. fires on this map come from NIFC. Counts are never blended across countries.

Tracking fires in the U.S. too?

The same map covers every U.S. wildfire โ€” plus free alerts, smoke, and a 0โ€“100 risk score for any U.S. address.

Canada fire map FAQ

Is this Canadian fire map live?

It shows the newest official data there is โ€” re-pulled every few minutes from Natural Resources Canada's national fire feed (CWFIF), which Canadian fire agencies update on their own schedule, typically every couple of hours. Each flame marks where a fire was reported, not where its edge is right now โ€” real fires spread, markers don't move. For evacuation orders and emergencies, follow your provincial emergency authorities and call 911.

Why don't the Canadian fires have names?

Canada's national feed identifies fires by their official agency ID (like 2026-N61613) rather than a name โ€” so that's what we show. Province-level pages with named fires, starting with British Columbia, are in the works.

What do OC, BH, and UC mean?

They are the stage-of-control codes Canadian agencies report: OC = Out of control, BH = Being held, UC = Under control. Canada reports control stages, not U.S.-style containment percentages โ€” we show the official code exactly as reported, with its plain-English meaning.

Can I get FireRisk alerts for a Canadian address?

Yes โ€” you can sign up free on this page. Today's alerts run on official U.S. fire data, which is most useful near the border; coverage from Canadian feeds (NRCan, BC Wildfire Service) is rolling out and will expand your alerts automatically, at no charge. We say exactly this on the signup card so there are no surprises.
