Bleh

We are experiencing a smog alert in Toronto as I write this. It's pretty bad today: this morning, it took me several minutes to cough the gunk out of my lungs. The air both inside and outside my apartment is like bus exhaust.

According to the Environment Canada web site, the Air Quality Health Index is 6, which represents Moderate Risk. If this is Moderate Risk, I'd hate to see High Risk.

And, in sort-of-related news, Prime Minister Stephen Harper is blaming Canada's environmental record on the Liberals. Again.
