Air quality in Alberta worst in the world Sunday
Description
May 21, 2023
On Sunday, Alberta had the worst air quality in the world. That's according to data tracked by the World Air Quality Index, a non-profit project that collects information from air monitoring stations around the globe. The poor air quality is forcing many Albertans to stay indoors this long weekend.
Nicole Stillger reports.
