Free N95 masks available at Elliot Lake Public Library, Fire Hall and City Hall during regular business hours.

As a precaution and on behalf of the Government of Canada, the Canadian Red Cross is distributing N95 respirator masks, free of charge, to organizations located in communities where exposure to wildfire smoke may impact air quality.

These masks are now available to anyone that would like one at the Elliot Lake Public Library, Fire Hall and City Hall during regular business hours.

Smoke travels far – Even if you’re not close to a fire, you can still be affected by smoke thousands of kilometres away. Learn more about wildfire smoke, air quality and health at Canada.ca/wildfiresmoke
