The mayor of Lytton, ordered people to evacuate, saying flames had spread through the village in just 15 minutes.
A heatwave has hit western Canada this week, with British Columbia recording three times its usual number of deaths.
Abnormally high temperatures have been recorded in swathes of North America.
