(Salem, OR) -- Oregon is sending nearly two-dozen firefighters to help battle wildfires in Alberta, Canada. There are more than 100 active fires with at least 14 being larger wildfires. There have been several storms with lightning and high winds combined with dryer and warmer conditions to increase fire danger. The personnel are being sent through the Northwest Compact. Canada has sent firefighters to Oregon in 2017, 2020 and last year to help battle large fires in the state.
