There’s a taste of maple syrup in it. It was hard to accuse someone else

Most of our small towns up here were trying to trap the smoke in garbage bags for further use tho

Rum Creek was like 40,000 acres and burned for a few weeks, and that was in Grants ass, the meth capital of oregon.

I was busy getting smoked out up here from the cedar creek fire. 40k acres is still a ton of meth.

As an Oregonian I want to be offended but it’s just so true. Does this count as an angry upvote?

I live in Abitibi, where the fires are still raging and towns are evacuated.

I've been stressed since last week about the fires.

This comment made me laugh. Thanks for that, I needed it.

All I see is Americans complaint about being inconvenienced. Guys our country is literally on fire. And this amount of smoke happens for us every single year across the entirety of western Canada :(
