Number of northern Sask. wildfires increases over weekend Provincial officials say the threat of wildfires in northern Saskatchewan increased over the weekend. The province is now battling uncontained fires near Grandmother’s Bay and along Highway 102 from La Ronge to Wollaston Lake. This added to the fires already burning near Dillon, Michel Village, St. George’s Hill, Stony Rapids and Stanley Mission. Saskatchewan Public Safety Agency vice-president of operations Steve Roberts said recent dry weather throughout much of the north has increased the fire risk. “Very little precipitation but it is delivering us lightning which is causing these new fire starts,” he said. “So, the fire ban will remain in place. We will look if there are opportunities to modify it but that would only be in the far northern part of the province.”
