跟进：加拿大派50名调查员彻查Wainwright基地大火 总理在国会披露火势不到一分钟窜近一公里

Wainwright——据美联社报道，加拿大总理 Mark Carney 10月19日在渥太华国会表示，50名调查员正在调查 CFB Wainwright 军事基地大火，调查由加拿大军队国家调查局牵头、皇家骑警支援。议员们在 Carney 发言前默哀一分钟，各反对党领袖也致哀。

Carney 说，事发时训练区内已有火情，「在猛烈风势驱动下，火焰在不到一分钟内窜近一公里，扑到士兵集结处」。他表示，调查人员尚未确定草地起火的原因，并称政府将以所需的速度与透明度查明这场悲剧的成因。截至周一，39名伤者中仍有19人伤势危重；保守党领袖 Pierre Poilievre 表示，多名伤者严重烧伤，需要数周乃至数月的重症护理。

加拿大陆军 Maj.-Gen. Wade Rutland 周日表示，军方事发前数小时就已知悉火情，但认为火势已受控，因而让训练继续，其后风向突变；调查还将检视安全程序是否需要修改。事发时，约84名 Charlie 连士兵分在两处地点训练，一处练习投掷手榴弹、一处演练攻击模拟敌方阵地，火焰扑入了第二处地点。这批士兵当时正为明年春季增援北约驻拉脱维亚加拿大部队做准备。

大火10月17日发生于实弹训练期间，造成4名军人死亡、39人受伤，遇难者为 Sgt. Morgan Wong 及 Privates Shaun Farrell、Aidan Goulding 与 Hayden Lykkemark。（GSM 据美联社报道）

Canada Deploys 50 Investigators to Probe Wainwright Base Fire That Killed Four Soldiers

Wainwright, Alberta — Fifty investigators are examining the fire at Canadian Forces Base Wainwright that killed four soldiers and injured 39 others, Prime Minister Mark Carney told Parliament in Ottawa on October 19, the Associated Press reported. The Canadian Forces National Investigation Service is leading the investigation with support from the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. Lawmakers observed a moment of silence before Carney spoke.

Carney said a fire had been burning in the training area and, driven by strong winds, jumped nearly a kilometer in less than a minute to where soldiers were gathered. Investigators had not determined what ignited the grass fire, he said, pledging answers as quickly and transparently as necessary. Nineteen of the injured remained in critical condition as of Monday; Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre said many suffered severe burns requiring weeks or months of intensive care.

Maj.-Gen. Wade Rutland said on Sunday that military officials had known about the fire for hours but believed it was contained and allowed training to continue before winds suddenly shifted; investigators will also examine whether safety procedures need to change. About 84 soldiers from Charlie Company were training at two locations — one for grenade practice, another for assaulting simulated enemy positions — when the fire swept into the second area. The soldiers were preparing for a mission next spring to reinforce Canadian troops serving with NATO in Latvia.

The fire broke out during live-fire training on October 17, killing Sgt. Morgan Wong and Privates Shaun Farrell, Aidan Goulding and Hayden Lykkemark. (GSM, via the Associated Press)
