Yesterday evening, members of the Chilliwack Fire Department were once again deployed to support wildfire suppression efforts near the evolving fires near Boston Bar.
We're incredibly proud of these firefighters who have stepped forward to assist.
Their willingness to leave home, work in challenging conditions, and support British Colombians reflects the very best of the fire service.
While their focus will be on protecting lives, property, and communities, ours will be supporting them from home.
Please join us in wishing our crew safe travels, safe deployment, and a safe return home.
Thank you for your service and commitment.We are proud to have you representing Chilliwack.

Effective at 12:00 p.m. (noon) PDT on Thursday, July 16, 2026, Category 1, 2 and 3 open fires will be prohibited throughout the Coastal Fire Centre’s jurisdiction, with exceptions for Category 1 campfires in parts of the North Island and Sunshine Coast.

Category 1 campfires will remain permitted in the Campbell River Forest District, North Island Central Coast Forest District, Haida Gwaii Forest District and Sunshine Coast Forest District. These areas are currently experiencing different weather and fuel conditions than other parts of the Coastal Fire Centre, with fire danger ratings and fire weather indices indicating a lower wildfire risk at this time.

Conditions are continually monitored, and restrictions are implemented where they are needed most to reduce the risk of human-caused wildfires and help protect communities, responders and our forests.

For more information, including a map outlining the affected area, please visit: https://blog.gov.bc.ca/bcwildfire/partial-category-1-campfire-prohibition-for-the-coastal-fire-centre/

Paid-On-Call firefighters come from all walks of life - they're farmers, mechanics, tradespeople, healthcare workers, students, business owners, and more. What they have in common is a commitment to serving our community when it matters most.
