Jasper is my hometown. Half of it is standing so it could have been worse, the firefighters were heroes last night. They had bad luck with lightning starting the fires only like 3 days ago and then it moving super fast and then spread by wind and fortunately everyone was evacuated. There wasn't a fire in a hundred years and pine beetles did a number on the trees so nature has a way of burning it all and restarting the process. The government was probably being their incompetent selves not having more logging and controlled fires in the past. They will rebuild but instead of nearly every business being owned by a private local it wouldn't be surprising if the corporations move in.
