    In Canada the leader of the Conservative Party of Canada, who has a decent chance of being elected PM, even accused Trudeau’s government in Parliament of starting the fires. It’s surprising that didn’t get more media attention. You can hear him shout “started by your government” at 1:02 in this clip:
