Original Note:
Human-caused fires do not necessarily mean arson. The vast majority of human-cased fires in Canada are by accident, not intentional arson. In addition, claims that fires are primarily caused by arson is a politicized myth that has been repeatedly debunked https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/safety/wildfire-status/wildfire-response/what-causes-wildfire https://www.factcheck.org/2024/02/posts-mislead-about-record-setting-canadian-wildfires-fueled-by-climate-change/ https://thenarwhal.ca/wildfire-canada-explainer/
