As Alberta braces for up to 10 days of soaring temperatures, Environment and Climate Change Canada has issued a heat warning for nearly all of the province.
WATCH : Is being cool amid extreme heat that triggers health warnings a human right? An Edmonton group thinks so and is pushing for more protection for people like renters, seniors and those who can't afford air conditioning. Breanna Karstens-Smith reports.
While the heat warning issued Monday included everywhere except parts of south and southwest Alberta, Environment Canada said it could be expanded to include more regions.People are being told to reschedule outdoor activities, take breaks from the heat, spend time in cooled indoor spaces if possible, drink plenty of water, never leave a child or pet inside a closed vehicle, and to monitor for symptoms of heat stroke and heat exhaustion — like lack of sweat, confusion and fainting.
