Great, glad we have agreements with Mexico to aid us. I remember a couple years ago we sent the Mars bomber from BC to Mexico to help as well.

Now if only the UCP would stop cutting our own wildfire fighters maybe we wouldnt need to call in international reinforcements every year.

Actually Mexico has been sending fire fighters for years, as we also go to Mexico when they need help.

We have reciprocal dealings with a lot of nations when it comes to fire fighting (Australia, US, even Turkey [usually with the water bombers]). It's one of the few times that humanity bands together to fight.
