Close to 100 Fire Rangers and other Ministry of Natural Resources staff remain in Alberta helping to fight the Fort McMurray wildfires.

M-N-R Fire information officer Shane McCool says at this point they are engaged in sustained attack activities in the Fort McMurray and Peace River areas.

They left May 6th and are expected home on May 25th.

McCool says it’s expected more Fire Rangers from Ontario will be sent west later this week.
