Ontario’s Alcohol and Gaming Commission (AGCO) advised racetracks on 6 June 2025 to cancel upcoming workouts, qualifiers and races when the Air Quality Health Index is in the high-risk range of 7–10. The recommendation follows an Environment Canada statement about elevated pollution from wildfire smoke in parts of Ontario, and the AGCO said it would continue monitoring conditions.
Racetracks are advised to cancel racing activities when air pollution reaches the specified high-risk index.
