Impact verdict

Low impact. No damage inventory, structure count, fire size, or insured loss figure is reported. The affected area is a thin-penetration rural stretch of the Fraser Canyon with no quantified insured exposure; current evidence does not support a credible route to USD 100m insured market loss. Potential impact remains LOW pending a quantified footprint or material structure losses.
