The City of Moose Jaw is once again under a special air quality statement from Environment and Climate Change Canada.
Wildfire smoke is expected to drift into this area tonight and linger around into Tuesday.
Residents are asked to reduce to eliminate physical activity outdoors and, if you must spend time outdoors, was a properly worn respirator mask, such as a NIOSH-certified N95 or equivalent respirator.
Increased levels of smoke can increase health risks. Mild and common symptoms include eye, nose, and throat irritation, headaches or a mild cough. More serious symptoms can include wheezing, chest pains, or a severe cough.
Those more likely to be impacted by smoky conditions include people aged 65 and older, pregnant people, infants and young children, people with pre-existing health conditions, and people who work outdoors.
