Canadian co-author Michael Brauer says the findings serve as a "wake-up call" for areas that haven't typically seen repeated or prolonged exposure to wildfire smoke.
I think you misunderstand what constitutes normal forest fires compared to country wide wildfires that suffocate the entire continent 3 years in a row.
This isn’t normal. It’s caused by a radical increase in global temperatures and a decrease in precipitation and weather patterns the likes of which we have never seen before.

In your case, it’s pointing out that the wildfires we have experienced for 3 years in a row, where entire regions have had to be evacuated, villages nearly disappeared, where large areas of North America have faced extreme levels of smog pollution is… normal and long overdue.
