World leaders may face wildfire smoke at Canada G7 summit
- World leaders will gather next week in Kananaskis, Alberta, for the G7 summit amid rampant wildfires across much of Canada.
- The second-worst fire season in decades has forced tens of thousands of residents to evacuate as 225 blazes, including 120 uncontrolled fires, burn across the country.
- Officials said the 3.7 million hectares consumed make this the second-largest area burned for this time of year in decades, with smoke spreading as far as the U.S. east coast.
- Canada identified Calgary, located near the summit location, as facing a significant threat of worsening air quality, while federal authorities confirmed that safety protocols addressing wildfires and other potential dangers remain active for the event.
- The wildfire situation suggests the summit may face smoke warnings, but the area hosting the summit itself remains outside active wildfire zones, while authorities prepare to meet any emerging risks.
