One of the more well known instances was "The Year Without Summer", back in the early 1800's, and also happened here in the shithole states of New England. That event caused significant harm. Again, particulates blocked the sun, in the 1816 case, from vulcanism. The Canadian wildfire situation isn't likely to have as widespread impact. Gov. DeMented will likely boast that such would never happen if he were President.
Then, of course, there's Snowball Earth. Something to look forward to:
Many possible triggering mechanisms could account for the beginning of a snowball Earth, such as the eruption of a supervolcano1816 demonstrated that such an event is possible.
