Parks Canada's National Fire Management Program is a team of professional, highly trained wildland fire management specialists committed to public safety and the stewardship of Parks Canada administered places. In 1909, the first national park wardens (Fire and Game Guardians) were hired - primarily to put out fires. Today's fire management specialists are working to sustain fire-dependent ecosystems while still providing fire protection. Parks Canada fire management personnel are trained in wildfire readiness and response and use the best available science to inform their approach to wildland fire management.
