Provincial Fire Ban Lifted

Released on June 16, 2025

Due to recent rainfall and cooler weather, the Saskatchewan Public Safety Agency (SPSA) is rescinding the provincial fire ban effective at 5 p.m. on Monday, June 16, 2025. 

The fire ban will be lifted on all Crown lands, provincial parks, and provincial recreation sites located north of the provincial forest boundary up to the Churchill River, along with the Northern Saskatchewan Administration District. 

The public is reminded that provincial parks, municipalities and R.M.s may still have their own local fire ban, restriction or advisory in place. A list of fire restrictions in provincial parks and recreation sites can be found here and the SPSA interactive fire ban map can be found here.

Municipalities and provincial parks should continue to monitor local conditions and implement fire bans or burning restrictions as required. 

The latest fire risk maps, fire prevention tips, an interactive fire ban map and frequently asked questions can be found at saskpublicsafety.ca.

Anyone who spots a wildfire can call 1-800-667-9660 or dial 9-1-1.

Established in 2017, the SPSA is a treasury board Crown corporation responsible for wildfire management, emergency management, Sask911, SaskAlert, the Civic Addressing Registry, the Provincial Disaster Assistance Program and fire safety.
