[Montreal Gazette] Thousands of hectares of forest are still burning out of control near a small aboriginal community on James Bay in northern Quebec. “It’s total destruction, down to the topsoil. Even the roots of (the) trees, they’re gone. Forget about it,” said Johnny Tomatuk, deputy chief of the Cree community in Eastmain. By Friday, the fire had burned through an area of about 300,000 hectares, about six times the size of the island of Montreal. 𣁽省北部森林火災仍未熄滅，估計約三十萬公頃士地(六個滿巿）受影響。 montrealgazette/news/Forest+fires+burning+control+near+James+community/8623296/story.html
