Wildfires near Quebec's Côte-Nord forced a shutdown of Route 389. Active fire zones made this route unsafe for travel. The town's air quality stays poor as officials warn of health risks. Evacuation plans for vulnerable groups are now under discussion. Smoke and flames pose the biggest danger. Farther east, Bas-Saint-Laurent's air stays cleaner with no major issues in the area. Firefighters fight the fires but containment progress is slow. The situation remains fluid now with no new evacuations set for other towns.
