Canada Air Quality (AQHI) MCP

An MCP server that provides Canada's Air Quality Health Index (AQHI) data for any postal code. It allows AI agents to retrieve current AQHI levels, risk assessments, forecasts, and perform multi-site monitoring for wildfire smoke checks. The server supports both a free tier for basic queries and a paid tier for advanced features like regional watches and bulk site checks.

Endpoint and access
