Where buildings once stood, charred rubble remains. Many homes in the historic townsite have been destroyed, leaving only the foundations. The video shows vehicles blackened by fire lining the streets. Scorched trees stand like matchsticks. Flashing vehicle lights flare red over the low chatter of an emergency radio. The truck pauses briefly in front of one of the burned homes and a man’s voice can be heard saying, “That’s Mom and Dad’s house.” CBC has verified that the video shows Geikie Street and Larch Avenue.

Justin Trudeau said on Thursday that his government had approved Alberta province’s request for federal assistance, adding that it was deploying military resources and evacuation support, as well as coordinating firefighting and airlift assistance. “As the heartbreaking images from Jasper emerge, I want to thank the brave first responders who are in Alberta right now, fighting to save every home and every community they can. Thank you for your courage, and for working non-stop to fight these wildfires,” Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said. “And, to reinforce their efforts, over 400 firefighters from our friends in Australia, New Zealand, Mexico, and South Africa are on their way to fight wildfires in Alberta, shoulder-to-shoulder with our Canadian teams,” he added.

A postcard-perfect mountain town, Jasper is famous for hiking, skiing, kayaking and biking. It is also home to dozens of species such as elk, mountain goats, cougars, lynx, black bears and grizzly bears. “We share the sense of loss with all who live in town,” Smith said at a news conference in Edmonton, Alberta, while pledging her government’s support for the community to rebuild. Jasper and the neighboring Jasper National Park had been menaced by fires from both the north and south, and the town’s 5,000 full-time residents — along with 20,000 visitors — fled on short notice late Monday and Tuesday when the fires flared up. One of the fires raced into the southern edge of the community Wednesday evening as firefighters tried to limit the damage.

Greg Gutfeld destroyed Vice President Kamala Harris’ record and said the focus on the presumed Democratic presidential candidate should be that “she lied to the American people, aiding the most egregious and dangerous political cover-up in American history.” During the Fox News host’s “Gutfeld” show on Wednesday, Gutfeld predicted that the legacy media will attempt to paint Harris versus former President Donald Trump as just a “Left versus right, Democrat versus Republican,” thing now that President Joe Biden has dropped out of the race. He said, “in reality, it’s the media narrative machine versus reality” and “that machine is now fully operational.” “So now, what you’ll get is the propagandist image of a competent, inspiring executive, which is meant to cover up the harsh truth of a deceiving incompetent,” Gutfeld told his audience. “The strategy is simple; fill the shelf space with lies so there’s no room for anything else.” “Quick, name something Harris has accomplished in the last four years besides building a fort out of empty cartons of boxed wine,” he added. “You can’t. No one can. But the Dems don’t care. The machine simply slotted her in where Joe once was…But to fulfill their goals, there’s no way for them to stay in the realm of reality.” GREG GUTFELD: Kamala Harris aided ‘the most egregious and dangerous political cover-up in American history’ https://t.co/IWNCEBgBej — Fox News (@FoxNews) July 25, 2024 “It’s exactly what they did with Biden,” Gutfeld continued. “Try to keep you in the ‘he’s sharp as a tack’ world and not in the ‘he’s a basket case’ world, which, as you know, was a lie Harris herself took part in for almost four years.” The Fox news host said the fact that Harris helped hide Biden’s failing health “should be the focus, not the linguistic linguine.” “It’s that she lied to the American people, aiding the most egregious and dangerous political cover-up in American history,” Gutfeld said. “Then, when the time was right, she took his spot and his money.” WATCH BEN SHAPIRO’S ‘SCAMALA: KAMALA HARRIS UNMASKED’ ON DAILYWIRE+ “Now, I do believe the modern media consumer is savvy enough to see this. Certainly you won’t fall for it,” he added. “We’ve been burned by this stove many times before, the stove being the hoax-inducing media…So remember who burned you last time as you experience the most orchestrated hoax yet.” The Fox News host concluded his monologue by pointing out, “this time, it’s not just about competing ideologies. This time, it’s you versus the machine, image versus reality, mostly peaceful versus a burned down city, serious prosecutor versus bailing out felons, Joe Biden is very sharp versus we beat Medicare, cheap fakes versus real dementia.” “You need to see this the way you saw Biden,” he added. “And remember that the same people who will shout in unison that they’ve never seen anyone as competent, compelling and inspiring as Kamala Harris are the same ones who told you that a demented old man deserves to be the most powerful person on earth. Otherwise, the joke will be on us. And while she may be laughing, trust me, we won’t.” Related: Greg Gutfeld Goes Viral As He Continues To Defend Tucker Carlson Against Leaked Clips
