Meanwhile, blazes in Canada have left Toronto under a haze and smoke heading towards several major US cities. Dramatic video shows a freight train in Canada surrounded by wildfire flames and workers requesting an emergency rescue as they report being "encased" in fire. Smoke blanketed Toronto, which woke up to hazy skies and some of the worst air quality in the world. The wildfires have led to concerns smoke will drift into US cities over the next few days, including in New Jersey, where Sunday's World Cup final is due to take place. Canadian National Rail said in a statement that the workers who were trapped outside Armstrong were all safely rescued. And that operations have been temporarily suspended in the region. There are currently 838 wildfires actively burning across Canada, according to the Canadian Interagency Forest Fire Centre.
