Edmonton remained under air quality statements on Sunday and the smoke shows no signs of going anywhere during Labour Day weekend.
The capital region is blanketed in wildfire smoke and has had a high-risk air quality since Saturday, according to Environment Canada, with a similar forecast into at least Tuesday.
However, some Edmontonians have decided to enjoy the long weekend outdoors, including at the 124 Grand Market.
"I know online it says it’s really bad but I can’t stay cooped up the whole long weekend so I decided to spend a little bit of time here at the market," Chris Tohercroisi told CTV News Edmonton.
