π¨π¦Canada
Canada's vast boreal forests make it one of the world's most wildfire-exposed countries; the record 2023 season burned more than 15 million hectares and forced mass evacuations. Spring floods, severe storms, extreme heat, and earthquake risk along the Pacific coast round out a hazard profile managed primarily by provinces and territories, with federal coordination and interagency wildfire resource-sharing during major events.
