CROWSNEST PASS, Alta. (CP) - After a helicopter tour Monday of a raging forest fire in the Crowsnest Pass, Alberta Premier Ralph Klein pledged the province will do what it takes to stamp out the blaze that forced nearly 2,000 people from their homes. "Our main concern and all of our . . . financial and human resources will be put to fighting the fire, saving property and saving lives. "The resources that are here now will stay here," Klein said. "As a matter of fact they will be increased if they have to be."
