The Canadian Air Quality Health Index povides you information from the official Environment Canada’s website.
The Air Quality Health Index (AQHI) is a new public information tool that helps Canadians protect their health on a daily basis from the negative effects of air pollution.
This tool has been developed by Health Canada and Environment Canada, in collaboration with the provinces and key health and environment stakeholders.
The Canadian Air Quality Health Index widget aims to provide you useful information from official web sites without having to fully parse their HTML and reload them every time. Just a mouse-throw away.
