@cp24breakingnews: At least six cities in the Greater Toronto Area have issued fire burn bans amid extremely dry and hot weather conditions. Ajax, Aurora, Newmarket, Oakville, Oshawa and Peterborough suspended open-air burning until further notice, barring even those carrying appropriate permits. “Given the ongoing concerns related to poor air quality and extremely dry conditions, effective immediately, Ajax will be implementing a ban of all open air burning for the present time-no open air burn permits will be issued,” the town said in a news release issued Monday morning. Southern Ontario is currently blanketed by heat warnings, with Environment Canada alerting locals of a “multi-day heat event” this week. Toronto, for example, is forecast to reach daytime temperatures as high as 35 C with the humidex making it feel like 37 to 42. The temporary restriction applies to any outdoor word burning appliances, including outdoor fire pits and fireplaces, as well as bonfires and campfires. #news #cp24 #cp24news #canada #toronto

It’s a very typical summer and with the gov continuing to set forests on fire they expect they can achieve climate lockdowns as early as next year

Love how Canada always sends help for the us or other countries on fire but when we’re on fire no one’s there to help isn’t that funny

at what point do we just accept that continuous back to back heat waves just means it's really hot and it's not getting better
there's no wave about it
