Talk:Great Fire of 1922

Question (done)
"In the fall when burning permits were no longer required, farmers and settlers started to set small brush fires to clear the land."
 * Should this instead say bush fires? Thanks  J e n o v a  20 09:59, 11 June 2012 (UTC)

I changed this in the article, without checking the reference. --NearEMPTiness (talk) 06:36, 12 September 2018 (UTC)

Issues for a knowledgeable editor

 * 1) "It has been called one of the ten worst natural disasters in Canadian history." - by who?  J e n o v a  20 10:04, 11 June 2012 (UTC)
 * 2) "The fire destroyed over 90% of the town, killing 11 residents, leaving 3500 people homeless, and causing $2 million of damage." - I'm assuming the value attached is from 1922 but is that definitely the case?  J e n o v a  20 10:04, 11 June 2012 (UTC)
 * 3) "An area of 246,000 hectares was destroyed in the fire." - this should be tagged to convert the coverage. Thanks  J e n o v a  20 10:04, 11 June 2012 (UTC)
