It doesn't mean the fire is out, but means the fire is surrounded by barriers like bulldozers breaks or hose lines, which are expected to keep it from spreading. However, the fire is still actively burning and could potentially jump or spread.

The entire province is under a burn ban.

Activities including camping, hiking and fishing are banned on Crown lands.

Heed these warnings from wildfire officials as the province continues to grapple with extreme conditions.
