# Claim table

| Claim | Evidence captured | BCFires status |
|---|---|---|
| “Carney cut half of the staff at the federal wildfire coordination centre.” | Facebook Reel caption/transcript and visible Toronto Sun/union headline in video frame sheet. | Reported claim; not independently verified from primary staffing records in this pass. |
| “50 out of about 100 jobs were eliminated.” | Reel transcript says “50 out of the 100 jobs were eliminated”; contact sheet shows Toronto Sun subhead referring to “About 50 of approximately 100 positions.” | Reported union/media number; requires primary Public Safety/Treasury Board/union documentation. |
| The unit is tied to federal emergency/wildfire coordination. | The video says federal response unit/coordination; Public Safety emergency-management context captured. | Plausible context, but exact unit role must be defined by official GOC/Public Safety records. |
| The claim proves Canada cannot manage wildfires. | No direct evidence from the Reel alone. | Overstated; needs operational-impact evidence, not just a staffing headline. |
