Residents of Prince Albert woke up the morning of August 2 to find the air grey with smoke as forest fires continue to burn in northern parts of Saskatchewan.
The air quality was bad enough that Environment Canada issued a special air quality statement, saying the air was at the high risk level eight, on a 1 – 10 scale.
People with heart and lung conditions could be at higher risk and are most affected by air pollution.
