Environment Canada has issued an air quality statement for much of northeastern Ontario, including areas in and around Greater Sudbury, North Bay, Sault Ste. Marie and Timmins. Environment Canada has issued an air quality statement for much of northeastern Ontario, including areas in and around Greater Sudbury, North Bay, Sault Ste. Marie and Timmins. 'Smoke is causing or expected to cause poor air quality and reduced visibility,' the statement said Saturday. 'High levels of air pollution due to smoke from forest fires are expected to return tonight and persist into Sunday. As smoke levels increase, health risks increase. Limit time outdoors. Consider reducing or rescheduling outdoor sports, activities and events.' Symptoms caused by forest fire smoke in the air include eye irritation, headaches and mild coughing. 'More serious but less common symptoms include wheezing, chest pains or severe cough,' Environment Canada said. 'If you think you are having a medical emergency, seek immediate medical assistance.' Keep windows closed People more likely to be impacted by outdoor air pollution, including people aged 65 and older, pregnant people, infants and young children, people with an existing illness or chronic health condition, and people who work outdoors, should reduce or reschedule strenuous activities outdoors and seek medical attention if experiencing symptoms. 'When indoors, keep windows and doors closed as much as possible,' Environment Canada said. 'When there is an extreme heat event occurring with poor air quality, prioritize keeping cool. If you must spend time outdoors, a well-constructed, well-fitting and properly worn respirator-type mask (such as a NIOSH-certified N95 or equivalent respirator) can reduce your exposure to the fine particles in the smoke.

London's commemoration of Afzaal family
Hundreds gathered at a vigil Friday night in London, Ont., to commemorate four years since the brutal killing of the Afzaal family. 'It's so important for us to remember what happened, to remember this family and recommit to standing united against all forms of hatred, including Islamophobia,' said Amira Elghawaby, a Special Representative on Combating Islamophobia. The family was out for an evening walk on June 6, 2021, when they were run over by Nathaniel Veltman, who was later convicted of first-degree murder and deemed a terrorist by the courts. 'It happened because they were Muslim which is deeply, deeply painful for Canadians across the country and of course London Muslims,' said Elghawaby. Advocates expressed events like this one help bring the community together, show solidarity and respect for human rights. 'This is really a whole of society issue that all Canadians benefit from supporting and addressing,' said Elghawaby. The Youth Coalition Combating Islamophobia organized the event, to ensure no other families are destroyed as a result of hate. 'We believe that silence is an enabler of hatred,' said Malik Khandakar, YCCI communications director. 'We feel the signs you give are an agreement and if you don't speak up against hatred this allows people to think it's ok.' Khandakar said more must be done to put an end to Islamophobia. 'We feel it needs a larger community because we can't just speak for ourselves. We need to have other people come out and gather. That's an important aspect of how we can move forward,' said Khandakar.
