The ban applies to all open fires, including agricultural burns, brush pile burning, and campfires.

Campfires are off the list of things to do in Ottawa for the foreseeable future, as a burn ban is in place across the city.

The ban was issued Monday morning due to hot and dry conditions across the region.

The ban applies to all open fires, including agricultural burns, brush pile burning, and campfires.

All city-issued burn permits have also been suspended until further notice.

Anyone caught burning during the ban will face a fine of $125.
