Ken Hodges , a B.C. forester, testified at a Parliamentary committee on the Jasper wildfire.
Hodges said he warned the Trudeau Liberals and Parks Canada in 2017 that an atomic bomb-like wildfire was ready to ignite in Jasper National Park .
The pine beetle infestation had finally hit Jasper in full, adding to the existing problem of an old, dry and dying forest, which hadn’t had a major forest fire in more than 100 years .
30 per cent of Jasper ’s structures were damaged or destroyed by the July wildfire.
