共和党和民主党参议员都反对唐纳德·特朗普总统提出的加拿大应就持续山火产生的烟雾向美国支付赔偿的要求,特朗普称这些烟雾已经“毒害”了美国多座城市的空气。
“我认为总统的说法很荒唐,”伊利诺伊州民主党参议员塔米·达克沃斯对福克斯新闻数字频道表示。
“没人能控制风向,”佛蒙特州民主党参议员彼得·韦尔奇说,“哪怕是特朗普总统也做不到。”

特朗普提出这一想法之前,抱怨近900场加拿大山火产生的烟雾破坏了美国大片区域的空气质量。他上周在安德鲁斯联合基地对记者表示,他在FIFA世界杯决赛期间与加拿大总理马克·卡尼谈及了这一问题。
“我对他们说,‘你们必须阻止这些烟雾飘过来,毒害我们的空气’,”特朗普在谈及与加拿大官员的对话时对记者表示。
他补充道:“如果我们能帮他们,我们会帮忙。但或许他们应该向我们支付一些赔偿,或者我们应该征收一些关税。”
最近几周,特朗普还在Truth Social上声称,他在与卡尼的通话中威胁要提高关税,以此作为对山火导致美国——尤其是芝加哥、底特律、明尼阿波利斯和纽约市等主要城市——空气质量达到危险水平的回应。

堪萨斯州共和党参议员罗杰·马歇尔呼吁加强加拿大和美国两国的森林管理,称美国同样对减少山火蔓延风险的森林管理不当负有“责任”。
“我最关注的是对森林进行积极管理,而美国同样难辞其咎,”马歇尔说。
“我们没有对森林进行积极管理,这就是为什么加拿大和美国都爆发了大规模山火,”他继续说道,“我们没有对森林进行妥善管理。”

尽管福克斯新闻数字频道采访的参议员大多否决了特朗普的提议,但俄亥俄州共和党议员伯尼·莫雷诺正在提出一项法案,要求加拿大为其山火对美国空气质量造成的影响承担责任。
“我不认为加拿大人比我们更希望发生这些山火,”密歇根州民主党参议员加里·彼得斯在谈及向加拿大追责的提议时表示。

“这些都是自然引发的火灾,你知道的,世界各地都在发生山火,”韦尔奇说,“这超出了任何人的控制范围——这是天气问题。”
这场肆虐的山火据信源于7月初北美各地数千次雷击。

Republican and Democratic senators are rejecting President Donald Trump’s call for Canada to pay damages to the U.S. over smoke from ongoing wildfires that he said have “poisoned” the air in many American cities.
“I think the president’s being ridiculous,” Sen. Tammy Duckworth, D-Ill., told Fox News Digital.
“Nobody can control the direction of the wind,” Sen. Peter Welch, D-Vt., said. “Even President Trump can’t do that.”

Trump floated the idea after complaining that smoke from nearly 900 Canadian wildfires has degraded air quality across large swaths of the U.S. He told reporters at Joint Base Andrews last week that he spoke to Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney at the FIFA World Cup final about the issue.
“I told them, I mean, ‘You got to stop these fires from coming in and, you know, poisoning our air,’” Trump told reporters about his exchange with Canadian officials.
He continued, “If we can help them, we’ll help them. But maybe they should pay us some damages or something, or we should do some tariffs.”
Trump also took to Truth Social in recent weeks claiming he threatened to increase tariffs in a phone call with Carney, as a response to the wildfires creating hazardous air quality in the U.S. — particularly in major cities like Chicago, Detroit, Minneapolis and New York City.

Sen. Roger Marshall, R-Kan., called for better management of both Canadian and American forests, arguing America is also “guilty” of improperly handling forests to reduce the likelihood of wildfires spreading.
“I’m mostly just interested in active management of the forest, and America is just as guilty,” Marshall said.
“We have not actively managed our forests, and that’s why in Canada and America both have led to these large fires,” he continued. “We haven’t properly managed them.”

While the senators Fox News Digital interviewed largely rejected Trump’s proposal, Sen. Bernie Moreno, R-Ohio, is introducing legislation to hold Canada accountable for the impact its wildfires have had on U.S. air quality.
” I don’t think the Canadians want those fires any more than we do,” Sen. Gary Peters, D-Mich., said about the call to charge Canada.

“Those are natural-caused fires, you know, we’re getting wildfires all over the world,” Welch said. “Beyond anyone’s control – it’s the weather.”
The raging wildfires are believed to have emerged from thousands of lightning strikes across North America in early July.
