Too many ATVs traipsing through the hinterland giving off exhaust sparks. 

But interestingly, if you view the new residence buildings being constructed on the new UBC satellite campus near the Kelowna airport, you would think that all was forgotten since the last Kelowna fire.  And that the subsequent commission to investigate and make recommendations, chaired by former Manitoba Premier Filmon, somehow ended up on a back shelve, unavailable for the perusal by Slave Lake, Ft Mac, and now again Kelowna. 

The UBC residences are built out of sticks, chipboard and glue.  And with the beautiful hill pines loaded with volatile terpenes that burn like gasoline just a stones throw away. Surrounded by a pine forest. It looks magnificent.

Regarding this years flooding and mosquito plague in Kelowna earlier this year, it might be an idea to follow the recommendation to widen the channel at Okanagan Falls as was made 60 years ago.
