Yes because I love camping and love the smoke!! Windows closed in the day and open during the night. The warning is mainly for older people and people that has or have had issues with their lungs.

This is nothing compared to smog in China, or just walking in the city in China for one day which is equivalent to smoking a pack of cigarettes.

No big deal for me, but a lot of people around me are getting sick  , complain about shit all the time.
For me, the gloom just reminds me of my time in some parts of Korea and China  | |

In case anyone is keeping tabs on the actual air quality measurements: B.C.'s Air Quality Readings
At the time of this posting, the PM2.5 rating is still sitting above the 24+ air quality objective landmark throughout the city. So please keep that in mind. Just because the air has cleared quite a bit compared to the worse day or two when the PM2.5 rating was sitting at 90+, we are still not out of this haze yet. Personally, I would still continue to follow the advisory measures and avoid outdoor activities as much as possible, stay in an air conditioned / filtered environment as much as possible, etc. Especially for those with respiratory issues, the young and elderly, please don't let your guard down just yet just because the air seems to have cleared somewhat.
For comparison, I was looking at the Beijing US Embassy's real time air quality index (AQI) rating today. IIRC, this measures Beijing's PM2.5 pollution in the same manner as the BC Air Quality link above, and it has been a source of tension between the Chinese government and the US. It was consistently hovering anywhere between 120 - 160+ during the times when I was looking at it throughout the day.  | |
