As a result, two planes from Quebec's SOPFEU (the province's forest fire protection agency) are in California. But things took a turn for the worse when one of them collided with a drone.</p><p>According to <a href="https://x.com/PIOErikScott/status/1877599087492739291?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1877599087492739291%7Ctwgr%5E7f18c73b730ba6da6dc76dcb82476dd8fc2374f8%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.mtlblog.com%2Fr%2Fentryeditor%2F2670792956distribution" target="_self">Captain Erik Scott</a> of the Los Angeles County Fire Department, the incident happened on Thursday afternoon while the SuperScooper Québec 1 was flying over an area over the Palisades. </p><p>The civilian drone, which wasn't authorized to be in the area, hit the plane's wing, causing damage that grounded the aircraft. Luckily, no one was hurt, but the plane is out of action for now.</p><blockquote class="rm-embed twitter-tweet" data-partner="rebelmouse" data-twitter-tweet-id="1877599087492739291">

This year, those planes have proven especially important as large fires burn through neighbourhoods like Palisades and Eaton Canyon, destroying thousands of acres and forcing over 153,000 people to evacuate.</p><p>The Canadian government has also stepped up. Earlier this week, Justin Trudeau announced that Canada was prepared to send 250 firefighters, along with aircraft and other resources.</p><blockquote class="rm-embed twitter-tweet" data-partner="rebelmouse" data-twitter-tweet-id="1877446487358968285">
