VICTORIA (CP) - The governor of fire-ravaged California has taken B.C. Premier Gordon Campbell up on his offer of help to fight the state's deadly wildfires. The province has compiled a list of nearly 200 firefighters and specialists, 65 fire pumps, and up to 10 air tankers and two so-called bird dog airplanes that could be sent to California. Campbell said he got a call Thursday from California Gov. Gray Davis.
