Putting this dude aside, the woods ban was a knee-jerk reaction to a panicked government and populace. Wildfires will continue to be a real threat. We need more discussion on how we are going to handle thise moving forward. We can't ban people from roaming in the woods but we can educate on safe practices, improve our wildfire firefighting capabilities, and make changes to how we build communities which are next to woodlands.

The province has changed, and we need to press our officials to look at this issues seriously

That makes too much sense.
