Western Canada DROUGHT Outlook for 2025

[Update: I am slightly amending original thread for accuracy, which is important amid chaos. There are some conflicting reports, though I have personally heard from many people in roles below who were fired in the last 24 hours (and many more were told "they're on the list").]
