Municipal, park, federal, First Nations and other land-manager rules can differ from integrated provincial or territorial surfaces.
Current official restriction map
Orange polygons are only shown where the responsible authority publishes reusable structured geography. Jurisdictions that publish a current authority page or regional status instead are listed below rather than being given invented polygons.
Orange polygons: integrated official restriction records. No matching polygon is not permission to burn; local, park and other authority rules can differ.
Current official restriction information
FireRadar combines normalized structured records with current official authority feeds. A successful source returning no active provincial or regional restriction still does not override municipal, park, federal or other authority rules.
