Metro Vancouver cancels Air Quality Advisory

METRO Vancouver announced on Wednesday that it has ended the ground-level ozone and fine particulate matter Air Quality Advisory for Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley Regional District that has been in effect since June 26.

Air quality has improved due to cleaner marine air flowing into the region.

Metro Vancouver works in cooperation with Environment and Climate Change Canada, Fraser Valley Regional District and B.C. Ministry of Environment and Climate Change Strategy to look after air quality.
