A 38-year-old Quebec man has been found guilty for starting a series of devastating forest fires - which lead to hectares worth of damage and displaced hundreds.
Brian Paré has plead guilty to staring 14 forest fires, including fires in Chapais and Lake Cavan, at a courthouse in Chibougamau in Quebec.
Paré, who has been detained since his arrest, said little during the hearing, only responding 'yes' to a series of questions from the judge.
He had been charged 13 counts of arson and one count of arson with disregard for human life.
It is unclear if the court has already determined his punishment or will hold another hearing.
