Canada, Central United States and Eastern United States – Wildfire activity in northern British Columbia and the Northwest Territories continued to produce high-density smoke, contributing to a lengthy plume of moderate to high-density remnant smoke extending eastward over northern Canada and southward over Ontario and Quebec.
