Air Quality Warning

Due to the ongoing forest fires in northern Quebec, which are occasionally degrading air quality, the Centre de sécurité civile de l’Agglomération de Montréal and la Santé publique are advising that the risk of respiratory problems is increased, particularly for people with heart or respiratory problems (heart disease, asthma, emphysema, chronic bronchitis, etc.). We suggest that you reduce your outings or use an N95 mask.

The City will continue to offer its outdoor activities and facilities, such as the swimming pool and tennis courts. In the event of elevated health risks, the Centre de sécurité civile de l’Agglomération de Montréal and la Santé publique may recommend the temporary closure of City facilities.
