A good portion of New Brunswick has been issued a poor air quality statement due to wildfire smoke coming in from the prairies.
Environment Canada says it affects mostly northern New Brunswick.
The forecaster says it is supposed to last tonight before clearing out Monday morning.
Mild symptoms such as eye, nose and throat irritation as well as headaches or a mild cough are common.
If you need to be outdoors Environment Canada suggests wearing a well-fitting medical grade respirator mask.
