Why not ban fireworks that make noise? So many children/adults as well as animals are so stressed with the noise. The sights are what matters, all the beautiful colours. Other countries have done this, why not Canada??
I just can't wrap my head around the idea that Paramedics in Sault Ste. Marie have to fight so hard to get the pay and respect they deserve. First Responders in this City have been through so much the last few years, with the rise in violent crimes in the Soo. I thank each and every Paramedic for all they do and I stand beside you in your fight for what you deserve!
I would be interested why the YMCA Corporate Office made the Board Members here sign a non-disclosure form. Just what are they afraid of people knowing??
Slim Shady if you cared enough to read my whole comment I didn't say for pets, I said animals! All animals are affected. How do other countries set off fireworks without the loud boom? There is a town in Italy that passed a law that only silent fireworks can be used. Maybe look it up before you spout off about something that you don't care to know anything about!
What do you have against the Paramedics? You are so bitter every single time there is an article about them, whether it be human interest or something to do with what they are asking for and deserve!
I get so tired of all the whining that takes place whenever something comes up in regards to the Paramedics in this community. God forbid anyone who doesn't think this is needed dies or has a loved one die because the resources aren't available. The Paramedics in the City are truly life savers and deserve more respect and support than they get! Maybe start putting things out for voters to determine what our hard earned tax money is spent on!
I absolutely hate when it is time for fireworks. Not only are animals traumatized but so are children, most of whom are on the autism spectrum. Why can't Canada follow other Countries and use the fireworks that only have the beautiful colours and NOT the loud bang?
