Coverage from AlterNet, The New York Times, and The Globe and Mail highlights the tension between federal climate discourse and regional fire management. The Toronto Star notes an increasing sense of pessimism regarding the local impact of smoke haze, while DroneXL reports on the deployment of thermal imaging and drone technology to combat the flames.
