New Brunswick is entering its fifth weekend with a provincewide burn ban.
The ban was first issued back on Aug. 6 due to the high wildfire risk.
There were 12 active fires burning throughout the province as of Friday afternoon.
That includes an out-of-control blaze in Northumberland County known as the Beaver Lake Stream fire.
Three other fires are listed as contained, one is under control and seven are being patrolled.
