Alberta Premier Danielle Smith is asking Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to put measures in place to help Jasper residents and businesses recover from the wildfire that has ravaged the mountain town.
The request came after the prime minister’s visit to the unified command centre in Hinton, Alta., on Aug. 5, where Trudeau and Smith received a briefing on the wildfires which have merged into one blaze dubbed “the Jasper Wildfire Complex.”
