In Vancouver, part of the city wakes up to a strong smell of burning plastic. According to initial reports, fire crews are responding to an incident at the Burnaby refinery, a suburb of Vancouver.

The Ministry of the Environment confirms that an incident is taking place. He asks people affected by the smell to stay indoors.

The incident would be responsible for the intense smell of burning which envelopes several neighborhoods of Greater Vancouver.

The refinery, bought by the Alberta company Parkland in 2017, supplies about a quarter of the&# x27;gas and diesel in Greater Vancouver.
