CANADA FIRE Act Sparks U.S. Retaliation | US News
Description
Senator Bernie Moreno is rolling out the CANADA FIRE Act, declaring a national emergency over wildfire smoke choking the U.S. Midwest and Northeast—and blaming Canada for failing to manage its forests. The bill would sanction Canadian officials, barring them from diplomatic circles until U.S. air quality improves for 90 days. Michigan Republicans are backing the move, demanding Canada step up on forest thinning and arson crackdowns—or face U.S. action. Meanwhile, Canada counters with over 850 active fires and insists climate change is a global problem needing international cooperation, while Republicans push for localized forest management as the real fix.
