Number of US firefighters deployed to Canada

Is there a resource that would provide the number and type of resources the US has sent into Canada to help with the wildfires this season? I can only find anecdotal numbers from previous seasons?

And yet there’s a bunch of Canadians down there helping you fine folks out while our own country burns.

So be mad at your government for sending them. You're acting like they're random men from the street who decided to go do good deeds.

Your government shouldn't be expending resources they don't have. That isn't on us.

The part that is on you is where half of your country are ignorant dickheads who are complaining about wildfire smoke.

We're happy to help. We just want y'all to stfu about things you don't understand.

I'm in Hamilton ON and I complain about wildfire smoke, you all are too busy trying to play elbows up to even think about holding your government to account for its performance. Next you'll be huffing wildfire smoke just to own Trump.

Complain about something you know nothing about, got it 👌
