Millions of people across North America have experienced hazardous air pollution this month as nearly a thousand active wildfires continue to rage in Canada. In addition to releasing hazardous chemicals and smoke darkening skies across the continent, the fires in Canada have also disproportionately impacted Indigenous communities, forcing thousands to evacuate their homes. Republican politicians have been loath to acknowledge the role of the climate crisis in making extreme weather events like this more frequent and intense, instead blaming Canadian officials for poor forest management. President Donald Trump has even threatened to impose new tariffs on Canada over the record levels of hazardous air.
Independent Canadian journalist Rachel Gilmore says that while Trump's comments are "extremely offensive" to people in the country, Liberal Prime Minister Mark Carney's policies — while acknowledging the science — also do little to mitigate the climate crisis as he approves new oil pipelines that would operate for decades.
"He's not exactly taking the climate action that we need here in Canada," Gilmore says of Carney.
