CALGARY — A natural gas pipeline owned by TC Energy Corp. ruptured near Edson, Alta. on Tuesday afternoon, sparking a wildfire.

But Charlotte Charbonneau, area information coordinator with Alberta Forestry and Parks, confirmed the pipeline incident sparked a wildfire in the area that — as of mid-afternoon — was 10 hectares in size. "The fire is still classified as out of control, but firefighters are making really good progress," she said.
