Rain and cooler temperatures on the Prairies offered little to no respite from multiple wildfires burning in the region, as provinces opened thousands of hotel rooms for evacuees from Western Canada.More than 190 wildfires were active across the country Monday, with 97 deemed out of control. Hazardous smoke and thick fumes reached beyond the Canadian border, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, which issued air-quality warnings from Minnesota to Florida.
