Ontario's New Democratic Party is calling for a public inquiry into the Ford government's preparedness and response to wildfires. The demand comes in the wake of criticism from First Nations leaders.
According to First Nations leaders, the provincial government left communities to fend for themselves during the crisis. They stated that affected areas did not receive timely support for necessary evacuations.
The proposed inquiry aims to examine how the government handled the wildfire situation. The focus centers on evaluating the effectiveness of the province's emergency preparations and its subsequent response measures.
