Letters: Campfire bans should be put in place earlier in season and automatically

Firefighters and RCMP officers are coming from all across Canada to help with the fires raging in our province. But where is the Canadian military during all of this?  What do they do all day? They should be out there helping.
It’s time that the provincewide campfire and backyard burning bans begin sooner and automatically, like on May 1. It’s ridiculous that the bans don’t come into effect until the fires start. Lawn sprinkling bans come into effect on schedule despi
