'This was something we didn't see. Nobody could have predicted it,” says the owner of McKay Bay Lodge on Vancouver Island.

Business in Bamfield is normally booming in the summer for a family-run fishing lodge, but a wildfire off Highway 4 has halted people from coming to town.

"We do have fuel, we've got food, we've got everything we need. We just need our clients back,” he says. "We have lost about 80 to 85 per cent of our revenues for the lodge and plus the marina,” says McKay. “Town is pretty quiet.” “It's a little tough on everybody,” he says. “There's no charge for them, of course, it's just out of everybody's hands.”“It's a lot of work, believe it or not,” he says. “We're booked pretty much solid till about Sept. 15,” he says. “So whoever loses their trip will just have to wait till next year, unfortunately.”
