Under these conditions, everyone should reduce or reschedule strenuous activities outdoors. Children, the elderly, or at risk should avoid outdoor physical activity all together.
Everyone in the Central Okanagan is struggling with hazardous air quality from fire smoke — from the firefighters on the front lines to those experiencing homelessness.
"We all know that because we came here today and spent a short period of time in it. But the firefighters are outside working in it relentlessly." With hundreds living on the street, and thousands more recently evacuated from their homes, the Kelowna Gospel Mission and other outreach groups in the Okanagan have stepped up to help those who can't just go indoors.
“Every day we’re providing food, basic things like clothing, water, coffee, harm reduction supplies, and we’ve added to that with masks in the past few days. It’s been really great,” said Carmen Rempel, the executive director of Kelowna Gospel Mission.
