Flin Flon, Lynn Lake Lifting Wildfire Evacuation Orders

  • Officials in Flin Flon and Lynn Lake in northwestern Manitoba are lifting mandatory wildfire evacuation orders this week.
  • The orders follow a large wildfire season that displaced over 22,000 people and burned more than 902,000 hectares, hindering firefighting efforts.
  • Residents will face limited health services, delays restoring essential businesses, risks from smoke and ash, and must remain ready to evacuate again if conditions worsen.
  • Flin Flon’s council plans to rescind its order at 9 a.m. June 25, allowing about 5,100 evacuees to return, while Lynn Lake began re-entry Friday amid ongoing fire activity nearby.
  • These returns mark a cautious phase in one of Manitoba’s largest evacuations, reflecting progress in firefighting but ongoing uncertainty about wildfire behaviour this summer.
