We spoke last week with Craig Rowland - who told us how he and his family had to hurriedly flee their home in Port McMurray as the flames engulfed nearby houses.
He, his wife and two children are now in Calgary, 650 kilometres away, and plan to stay there. While their house has emerged unscathed from the fires, much of Fort McMurray's infrastructure, including its hospital, have been destroyed.
Craig's sister has also set up a Give a Little page to raise money for the family.
