Now she has one season to prove she's still fit to command a wildfire crew - and the province has embedded the woman who that report to decide. Dr. Joey Marchetti talks too much, drives a Corolla up a four-by-four road, and is the finest fire behaviour analyst in British Columbia. She stands by every word she published about Margo Iyer.
