Environment Canada issued an air quality advisory on July 6 for areas northwest of Edmonton, including Barrhead, Athabasca, and Westlock. Widespread smoke is causing a haze, reducing air quality and posing health risks. Fine particles in the smoke can cause respiratory issues for many, with seniors, pregnant women, infants, young children, and those with chronic illness being particularly vulnerable. People in these groups should avoid breathing in smoke particles.
