Wood Smoke Stories

Fire pits burn all day

We have an imported “Nordic Spa” across the road from us. Several open wood burning fire pits still burning 14 hours a day, 7 days a week. So far some have been converted to natural gas, but not all.

We cannot go outside because it affects my wife’s health. No gardening! We have complained to the City. No luck in the past. We will continue to object. Our Province has no “Clean Air” act. We will keep you informed.
