加拿大旅游胜地贾斯珀山火蔓延，引发全面撤离
随着加拿大阿尔伯塔省贾斯珀国家公园内山林野火的不断蔓延，当地政府紧急向贾斯珀镇和贾斯珀国家公园的居民、工作人员及游客发布了全面疏散撤离令。这一举措是在23日由阿尔伯塔省政府公布的，旨在应对火势可能在数天内逼近贾斯珀镇的严峻情况。
贾斯珀镇位于加拿大阿尔伯塔省的中心，是加拿大著名的旅游胜地之一。然而，一场突如其来的山火已经让这片美丽的土地面临了前所未有的挑战。根据官方公报，为了确保人员安全，建议所有撤离人员前往卡尔加里、埃德蒙顿等周边大城市的接待中心。当前，当地居民和游客共有约2.5万人受到影响，他们需要向邻近的卑诗省撤离。
此外，阿尔伯塔省其他地区的山林野火也已导致约1.75万居民接到疏散撤离令，部分原住民社区同样受到波及。为了应对火情，加拿大国家公园管理局已经取消了贾斯珀所有8月6日之前露营地的预订。目前，该省境内共有170起山火，过去一天内新增15起，其中多处山火状态失控，累计过火面积超过10万公顷。
自今年年初以来，阿尔伯塔省已累计发生了940起山火，过火面积超过53.3万公顷，其中56处被认定为失控状态。为了应对火情，该省已投入了逾1800人、156架直升机和21架飞机进行灭火工作，并从省外调动了消防人员和相关设备。同时，省内所有森林保护区已实施禁火令。
紧邻阿尔伯塔省的卑诗省也正面临山林野火的严峻挑战。截至23日，卑诗省境内有428起活跃山火，其中62%处于失控状态。该省自7月12日起实施了篝火禁令，以期减少火源引发的野火风险。
回顾今年5月，加拿大多个省份已遭遇了严重的山林野火。近期的炎热、干旱天气进一步加剧了加拿大西部山林地带的火情。去年，加拿大经历了史上最具破坏性的山林野火季，官方数据显示，去年的极端天气给该国造成了逾31亿加元的保险损失。加政府今年6月中旬的预测显示，今年夏季该国大部分地区的野火风险仍将处于高位。
面对严峻的火情，加拿大政府和相关部门正在采取一切必要措施，以确保民众的生命安全，并尽力减少损失。同时，国际社会也在密切关注这一情况，期待加拿大能够有效应对这一挑战，保护这片美丽土地的自然环境和人类家园。

News Content: Flames of the Jasper Wildfires in Canada’s Tourist Haven Spread, Triggering Comprehensive Evacuations
As the wildfires raging within Jasper National Park in Alberta, Canada’s province, continue to spread, the local government has issued an urgent evacuation order for residents, staff, and tourists in Jasper town and the national park. This measure was announced by the Alberta provincial government on the 23rd, aimed at addressing the severe situation where the fires could approach Jasper town within days.
Jasper, located in the heart of Alberta, is one of Canada’s premier tourist destinations. However, an unexpected wildfire has posed unprecedented challenges to this beautiful land. According to official statements, to ensure the safety of personnel, all evacuees are advised to head to reception centers in nearby larger cities like Calgary and Edmonton. Approximately 25,000 people, both locals and visitors, have been affected, necessitating evacuation to neighboring British Columbia.
Moreover, wildfires in other parts of Alberta have led to the evacuation of approximately 17,500 residents, with some Indigenous communities also impacted. In response to the fire situation, the Canada National Parks Agency has canceled all reservations for campgrounds in Jasper until August 6. Currently, there are 170 wildfires across the province, with 15 new ones reported in the last day, with multiple fires out of control, covering over 1 million hectares.
Since the beginning of the year, Alberta has experienced 940 wildfires, with over 533,000 hectares burned, with 56 considered out of control. The province has mobilized over 1,800 personnel, 156 helicopters, and 21 aircraft for firefighting efforts, and has brought in additional firefighting personnel and equipment from outside the province. All forest protection areas within the province have also been subject to fire bans.
Neighboring British Columbia is also facing the challenge of wildfires. By the 23rd, there were 428 active wildfires in the province, with 62% out of control. The province has been under a campfire ban since July 12, aiming to reduce the risk of wildfires caused by campfires.
Recalling May, several Canadian provinces experienced severe wildfires. Recent hot and dry weather conditions have exacerbated the fire situation in Canada’s western mountainous regions. Last year, Canada experienced its most destructive wildfire season, with official records showing over 3.1 billion Canadian dollars in insurance losses. The Canadian government’s prediction in mid-June indicated that the wildfire risk for most of the country during the summer would remain high.
Facing the严峻 situation, the Canadian government and relevant departments are taking all necessary measures to ensure the safety of the public and minimize losses. Meanwhile, the international community is closely monitoring the situation, looking forward to Canada effectively addressing this challenge to protect the natural environment and human settlements of this beautiful land.
