Photos of infrastructure

Jasper National Park

“For those who have lost so much, whose homes are gone, whose memories have been turned to ash, whose future remains so uncertain, whose hearts are breaking, my heart breaks with you.”

Richard Ireland, Mayor of Jasper

“I want to extend my heartfelt condolences to everyone who experienced losses. We are here to support the entire community of Jasper. Our thoughts are with you, your families, and all residents and business operators during this incredibly difficult time.”

Alan Fehr, Jasper Field Unit Superintendent, Parks Canada
