More help for Canada’s forest firefighters is coming from Down Under.
Australia is sending a crew of 55 people to Canada.
They will be working on fires in British Columbia and Ontario.
They are scheduled to be in the country for seven weeks.
Two of those weeks will be to quarantine before being deployed.
Ontario and Canada sent crews to help Australia battle its wildfires in late 2019 and early 2020.
