🚨 Wildfire Smoke Alert 🚨
Wildfire season is here, and smoke from fires across Canada is affecting Mississauga's air quality. 🌫️
Breathing in wildfire smoke can be harmful-especially for kids, seniors, and anyone with heart or lung conditions. If you're feeling unwell (think sore throat, cough, or difficulty breathing), take it seriously and get help if needed.
✅ Protect yourself:
• Stay indoors when air quality is poor
• Take breaks inside if you're working outdoors
• Keep windows shut and set HVAC to recirculate
• Use air purifiers if you can
• Stay hydrated 💧
• Check on neighbours and loved ones
📱 Download the WeatherCan app or check the Air Quality Health Index (AQHI) to stay in the know. Learn more here https://t.co/C8WcPcXMl0

My morning commute to Queen's Park has been so much better since I started taking the GO train to Toronto.
Unfortunately, if you don't work a 9-5, your experience of GO transit is brutal by comparison. The riders are there. It's time for two-way all-day GO to and from Kitchener.
Did you know Mississauga has an interactive online map for reporting coyote sightings?
When you report a sighting, you can include the location, date, time, type, and even a photo. Here are some snapshots we've collected over the past year. 📸
