Two more Newfoundland communities ordered to evacuate as wildfire burns
August 7, 2025
A Newfoundland wildfire is forcing another 900 people to leave their homes as hot temperatures fuel multiple out-of-control blazes in the province.
Premier John Hogan said Thursday that the province has ordered the residents of two communities – Ochre Pit Cove and Salmon Cove – to join the hundreds of other evacuees already ordered to leave communities along the western coast of Conception Bay in eastern Newfoundland.
