Canada inmates relocated as hundreds flee wildfires

By Nidz Godino

Hundreds  of people  including 225 inmates from  maximum security prison has been evacuated wildfires hit eastern Canada.

Federal  penitentiary in Port-Cartier, about 500 kilometers (300 miles) north of Quebec City, was ordered evacuated along with about 1,000 local residents over, and 750 workers at  hydroelectric dam in Labrador further north.

In  statement, correctional services commissioner Anne Kelly said prison was closed and inmates “were successfully moved from  affected area to other secure federal correctional facilities.”

Prison  has housed some of the nation’s most notorious criminals including several serial killers.

Local  state of emergency was declared  as wildfires menaced town of Port-Cartier.

Hundreds of workers at  massive hydroelectric plant in Churchill Falls also remained displaced  after fleeing advancing fires earlier this week.

Plant  provides power to province of Newfoundland, neighboring Quebec and other jurisdictions.

Fire  “remains threat to  community,” Newfoundland Premier Andrew Furey told  news conference, but it has been “largely contained” to opposite shores of  river from  plant.

Newfoundland and Labrador Hydro boss Jennifer Williams said  skeleton crew remained behind to keep  generating plant working.
