Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew is pushing back against two U.S. Congressmen after they wrote a letter requesting Canada improve its forest fire management to prevent smoke from reaching the United States.
“I’ve shaken the hands of American firefighters in northern Manitoba who are helping us out, and I would challenge these ambulance chasers in the U.S. Congress to go and do the same,” Kinew said during a July 10 press conference.
