Wildfire near B.C.’s Coquihalla Highway triggers evacuation order and alerts
September 4, 2025
About 84 properties along the Coquihalla Highway in the British Columbia Interior are on alert and one other has been ordered to evacuate due to an intense wildfire that saw drivers go through showers of embers before the highway was shut down.
The Thompson-Nicola Regional District says the evacuation order and alerts are due to the Mine Creek fire, which has reached 1,900 hectares in size and is burning near the highway between Hope and Merritt.

Ken Dryden would plant the toe of his goalie stick in the ice, resting his leather-clad right blocker hand and left catching hand atop the taped knob as a rest for his chin. He was a sentry temporarily at ease, looking no more bothered than a streetsweeper waiting for traffic to pass.For some, the pose evoked Rodin’s The Thinker, as though the goalie needed a respite from the frantic action. In the 1970s, it was not uncommon to see a kids’ road hockey game in which both goalies struck the stance.
