Fort McMurray ‘85%’ intact after wildfire

Alberta’s premier declared Canada’s oil-sands city safe and said a plan would be put together within two weeks so 88,000 residents could return to their homes.

Two neighbourhoods in Fort McMurray have been devastated.

Incinerated homes have been levelled, after a wildfire that the city’s fire chief called a “beast ... a fire like I’ve never seen in my life”.
