Do you know why people are working outdoors when the fire danger is extreme?

The Ministry of Forests has authority under the Wildfire Act to restrict areas and activities based on wildfire risks. The Wildfire Regulation restricts the timing of industrial activity based on the fire danger rating, specific to local weather stations in British Columbia. The restrictions are described in Schedule 3 of the Wildfire Regulation.
