As crews continue to battle a wildfire in the Halifax area of Nova Scotia, firefighters over five hours away in Cape Breton are ready and waiting to assist on a moments notice.

Cape Breton Regional Municipality is trying to decide whether it's better to hire more fire safety inspectors or contract out that service to the Nova Scotia fire marshal's office.

The death of a Cape Breton University student last month is raising fire safety concerns due to overcrowded rental housing.

The head of fire services for the Cape Breton Regional Municipality is sounding the alarm about the number of fatal fires in the area.

Nova Scotia's Environment Department is investigating a major gasoline spill at the facility, but residents are concerned about their safety and the environment.

Some residents are calling for the fuel tanks to move after an accidental spill caused a brief evacuation in their north-end neighbourhood in Sydney, N.S.

The Cape Breton Regional Municipality says Sydney residents may smell gas, but that's because of a change in wind direction. On Friday, roughly 600,000 litres of gas leaked out of a storage tank at Imperial Oil.
