North Shore residents are warned to take extra precautions as the fire risk grows.

This means fully stamping out your doobies, cigarettes, crack pipes etc. and being VERY CAREFUL with fireworks.

West Vancouver fire department has tended to 10 bush fires in the past week and has subsequently banned the use of charcoal barbecues and smoking in their parks.

It’s not that hard to not start a forest fire, so just don’t, okay?
