Thick, smoky air blanketed many parts of Quebec on Sunday as more than 110 wildfires raging in the northern parts of the province set more communities on high alert for new evacuation orders.

Environment Canada issued smog warnings for wide swaths of the north, south and west of the province, including Montreal, Québec, Laval, Longueuil and Trois-Rivières.
