did you notice the quebec planes don't take full loads? Not true to say this. The Ontario Tankers got there from working a fire to the west of Timmins and were on this fire at least 1 hour before the 2 Quebec tankers arrived directly from Val dor. The Ontario tankers had a much lighter fuel loads The Quebec tankers also carry a much higher fuel load for initial attack enough for 5 hours while Ontario only fuels for 4.
I first saw them when driving on Legion Drive, at about 3pm. I was in the West College parking lot, then near the lake, where I took these videos. Didn't notice it, just hadn't seen this many water bombers before
