Canada wildfires impair air quality and strain US ties
Wide forest fires broke out in Ontario, Canada, with the affected area exceeding 725,000 hectares, and 57 fires burning out of control. Prime Minister Doug Ford confirmed that cooperation with the United States is essential to combat the fires, noting that one of the fires started in Minnesota. Concurrently, the U.S. administration imposed a 50% customs tariff on some Canadian goods, justifying this measure by the impact of the Canadian fires on air quality, which led to a deterioration of conditions in cities like Toronto and New York. Ford explained that the Canadian government is making intensive efforts to fight the fires, which reflect an increasing trend of wildfires caused by rising temperatures and dry wood.
