Earlier this week, Canadian officials ordered the evacuation of Yellowknife, the capital of the country’s Northwest Territories. A 400,000-acre wildfire is just ten miles away from the city of 20,000 people. The Canadian military has been mobilized to help fight the wildfire and evacuate residents. Every resident was given a deadline of noon today to leave — and Air Canada has been accused of price gouging those attempting to flee by air.
