But F1 insist that the Canadian Grand Prix, which is scheduled to take pl🌸ace on June 18, will not be impacted, contrary to reports. 

The Circuit Gilles Villeneuve in Montreal is located some 800km from the fires, though strong winds have carried smoke ♛across the Quebec region and as far a💖s the East Coast of North America. 

Thousands of flights🌸 have been delayed and baseball games have been😼 postponed as a result of the smog, which has left New York City shrouded in an orange haze. 

The situation has prompted the US National Weather Servi🍨ce to issue air qualit🥂y alerts for almost the entire Atlantic seaboard. 

However, the air quality in Montreal is currently classed as ‘good’ and there has been no requirement for residents to stay indoors or restrict their outdoor mo🌊vements. 

It is expected that the wind direction will move the smoke away from Montreal, while rainfall is also forecas😼t.
