Fort McMurray Fire Shows Losses and Resilience
Charred houses line a fence while untouched schools and hospitals stand nearby in Fort McMurray Alberta as 90 percent of the city remains standing after a massive wildfire. Fire Chief Darby Allen says responders gave their all and 2,400 homes were destroyed while 25,000 were saved including the hospital and downtown. Premier Notley vows residents will return home as evacuees, about 80 000, scatter across the province. Randy MacKenzie flees with dogs and returns to collect them as authorities permit.
