Even amid a provincial state of emergency that has seen tens of thousands forced to flee their homes due to wildfires, people in B.C. are defying a ban on campfires.

The BC Conservation Officer Service said Monday, in a social media post, that seven tickets were handed out over the weekend totalling a combined $8,050.

It's not like that stopped people. Did they even actually issue and collect on those? Because it really just seemed like the Premiere got on TV every day to impotently shake his head about it all.
