The Rural Municipality of Lakeshore has put a burning ban in place.
The municipality says all existing burn permits have been revoked, and agricultural burning will be permitted by permit only but these permits will only be issued for one day.
Backyard fires will be allowed in enclosed pits with extreme caution.
The municipality says having a source to extinguish the fire is recommended, and if a fire from a pit gets out of control, you may be charged if the fire department is called.
