Australia is facing unprecedented fires. So far, over 13 million acres of land has been destroyed — that’s more than four times larger than the Amazon fires.
Hundreds of thousands of people are trying to flee and an estimated one billion animals have already burned to death.
As fires continue to ravage the country with no end in sight, petition starter Rodrigo wants the Canadian government to send a fleet of water bombers to help.
Canada has one of the largest fleets in the world, sign now if you believe they should be sent to help Australia fight the worst fires of its history.

Australia is facing the worst fires of its history. People have been killed, homes have been destroyed and half a billion animals have burned to death. The scale of the fires is enormous — over five times the area that burned during the Amazon fires in Brazil has already gone up in flames, with no end in sight. We Canadians have one of the largest fleets of water bombers in the world and they are currently being underutilized due to winter conditions. We want our country to send a fleet of CL-415 water bombers to our fellow Australians in order to help in these times of need. Canada has started sending firefighters to support Australia’s efforts, but more firefighters and military support are desperately needed. Please sign this petition in order for our government to understand the deep ties that unite both of our countries and the motivation of Canadians to help. Australia has helped us before, let’s make sure we help them now. Thank you. |
