Message from Fire Chief Thomas - Wildfire Smoke Affecting Air Quality

- Jul 15, 2026

At this time there are no forest fires burning close to the City of Elliot Lake. The smoke that we are experiencing is being caused by fires in Northwestern Ontario. Elliot Lake is in no immediate danger from fires at this time.

Residents can see a current status of fires in the province using the province's Interactive Fire Map found at ElliotLake.ca/OntarioFireMap

Free N95 masks are available to those who need to be outside and/or are experiencing respiratory issues at the Elliot Lake Fire Hall located at 55 Hillside Drive North. At this time it is recommended to stay indoors and limit your exposure to the smoke as much as possible.

Stay tuned to ElliotLake.ca/News as well as the City Facebook and Instagram pages for further updates.
