Evacuations by province & territory

Outside BC, evacuation orders are issued by local and provincial emergency authorities — most provinces publish them through their emergency-management organization and broadcast alert system rather than one province-wide zone feed. We add each province’s official feed to the map above as we verify it. Until then: your municipality’s channels, your provincial emergency management organization, and Alert Ready broadcasts are the authoritative sources — and each province tracker below carries its live fires and official links.

What an evacuation Order vs Alert means

🔴 Evacuation Order — leave the area immediately.

Follow the posted route if one is given. Don’t wait to gather belongings beyond essentials.

🟠 Evacuation Alert — be ready to leave on short notice.

Pack essentials, plan where you’d go, keep your vehicle fueled, and watch official channels.

Vocabulary varies slightly by province — always follow the exact instruction from your local authority.

Canada evacuation map FAQ

Which Canadian evacuation zones appear on this map?

British Columbia’s official evacuation orders and alerts — the Province of BC’s own dataset, shown verbatim and updated continuously. Other provinces issue evacuations through local authorities and provincial alert systems rather than one province-wide zone feed; we add each province’s official feed here as we verify it, and the directory below routes you to every province’s official channel in the meantime.

What is the difference between an evacuation Order and an Alert?

In BC’s vocabulary: an Evacuation ORDER means you must leave the area immediately. An Evacuation ALERT means be ready to leave on short notice — pack essentials, plan your route, and watch official channels. Other provinces use similar two-stage language. Always follow the exact instruction from your local authority.

Is a fire on the map with no zone around it safe?

No map can tell you that. Zones appear when officials issue them — a fire without a zone may simply be one where officials haven’t needed to act yet, or where the province has no public zone feed. In an emergency, follow local authorities and call 911. We never render an all-clear.

How current is this page?

The fire layer re-pulls official Canadian feeds every few minutes; BC evacuation zones come straight from the provincial dataset and update continuously. Each flame marks where a fire was reported, not where its edge is right now.

FireRisk.ai relays official government data and is not an emergency service. Zones and statuses are shown verbatim from the issuing authority; feeds can lag and conditions change fast.
