    The CEASE-FIRE Effort - 2021 BC Forest Fires

    Hello CGN

    I know this is a bit of a regional issue and I know it's been a tough year across Canada as it is. Though I am humbly asking for your help and support.

    It's been a bad year for fires here in BC with 1260 wildfires to date, 3,800 current homes evacuated and 17,000 on alert.

    Every day I talk to people who have lost their homes, land, possessions, cattle, pets and worst of all friends and family. In a single weekend this year we had 808 fire and heat related deaths. It wears heavy on us and instead of thoughts and prayers we have chosen action.

    Most of rural British Columbia are hunters and shooters or related to them.

    We will be collecting funds to support the Red Cross British Columbia Fires Appeal to provide relief to those affected by the 2021 forest fires. Every dollar raised will be matched by the BC Provincial Government. This means $1 donated becomes $2.

    Any support is greatly appreciated.

    With gratitude,
    Nicholas Chee
    Reliable Gun

    Great cause, and company I work for is pushing for Red Cross donations as well. But I question that claim of 808 deaths in a single weekend from fires and heat. Where on earth did that come from?

    Most of the figures came from the BC coroner's office. Google it.

    Stinks that the shipping on ammo is so darn high now, even to AB. I guess the old fashioned way to donate will have to do! keep up the good work Reliable Gun!

    Edit: OK, i guess i'm having an dumb person day... i went to donate and now have to blank orders, both with 0.00$ donations... What am i missing here?

    Edit to the Edit: Yup, i was being dumb. i figured it out!

    Donation on the way. Anything a humble Albertan can do to help the folks in BC is money well spent.

    After the 5th call last week of hearing that their houses burnt down or that they have lost everything. We can't just send thoughts, prayers and rainbows. We have chosen action and are grateful that we have received your support.
