Facts about wildland fires in Canada
  • Canada has about 9% of the world’s forests. Each year over the last 25 years, about 7,466 forest fires have occurred. The total area burned varies widely from year to year, but averages about 2.5 million hectares annually.
  • Only 3% of all wildland fires that start each year in Canada grow to more than 200 hectares in area. However, these fires account for 97% of the total area burned across the country.
  • Fire suppression costs over the last decade in Canada have ranged from about $500 million to $1 billion a year.
