A group of more than two dozen health-care workers from Ontario is heading to Alberta to help treat victims of a deadly fire at CFB Wainwright. The team includes nurses and doctors from Sunnybrook Hospital’s burn centre. The fire, which killed several people, occurred at the Canadian Forces Base in Alberta.
Authorities are still investigating the cause of the fire. Over 50 investigators are currently involved in the probe. Canadian bishops have expressed sorrow over the incident and called for prayers for the victims. The military base is located in Alberta, and the fire has raised concerns about safety protocols.
This is not the first incident at CFB Wainwright. Previous reports indicate that the base has experienced safety issues in the past. The current fire has led to increased scrutiny of military facilities in the region. The Ontario medical team is expected to arrive in the coming days to provide critical care to those injured. The situation remains under active review by local and national authorities.
