Rachel, you're not alone. No journalist should ever be intimidated like this for doing their work in service of the public's right to know. EVER.

The Tyee is proud to have published this important investigation by @rachelgilmore.bsky.social. We condemn this egregious harassment of a journalist for doing her job, and have offered support as she deals with this disturbing situation.

Having similarly dealt with far-right characters I’ve reported on engage in stalking / harassing behaviour to the point where lawyers needed to be engaged, I can say Canada’s laws are completely insufficient to deal with these problems and I have zero trust in the legal system to protect journalists

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.
