Re: i cant beleive this!!!

I work with REAS and we operate from Slave Lake with our parent company Tiger Calcium..in Mitsue. A number of our employees have lost there homes and our plant in Mitsue was very close to being burnt down before the wind changed and the fire started heading towards Slave Lake.

We operate from Wabasca too and I guess there were fires burning there earlier in the day. It is very bad.

Any word on the plywood plant?

Re: i cant beleive this!!!

I have two elderly parents who live in Slave Lake. Still waiting word from the red cross in Westlock and High Prairie. The news coverage sucks! Facebook page "Slave lake Community and Message Board" seems to be the best bet for info right now.
