Here’s how to fireproof your home. But can you afford it?
Move the propane tank, clear the toys, replace the deck. When guest host Johanna Wagstaffe asks a FireSmart assessor for advice on safeguarding her home from wildfires, she’s left with a long to-do list – from simple to pricey. Then, we visit Canada’s first FireSmart community, Logan Lake, to hear how those efforts helped protect it from a mega fire. And we ask whether funding for wildfire prevention is keeping up with the growing risk.
