Calgarians fed up with wildfire smoke as Labour Day weekend concludes

It's a common theme every summer in Calgary: Wildfire smoke blocking a blue sky and sunny day.

It's a common theme every summer in Calgary: Wildfire smoke blocking a blue sky and sunny day.

Monday, rain showers were mixed in with unseasonably chillier temperatures.

Calgarians say it's not the unofficial end to summer they were expecting.

"It's kind of smoky today," said back-to-school shopper Caleb Neufeld.

"We walked out of the mall and it was a wall of smoke."

Susan Harris says she and her husband spent the day at Southcentre, in part due to smoke.

"We had a change in plans. Our family was here from Edmonton and they went home because of the smoke," she said.
