Fireworks

We need to ban the personal use and sales of fireworks in Christina Lake.
The Summers are getting busier every yesr with more people letting off fireworks/firecrackers usually under the influence of alcohol which is a deadly mix.

They cause huge fire and noise hazards for our beautiful, peaceful community. They also affect the environment and are extremely stressful for the wildlife and pets we cherish.
There could be a "hotline" set up for people to report infractions and fines levied as a deterrent.
Also, laser firework shows should be considered for community events.

My husband and I have lived here for two years and we recently just bought a house and plan to raise a family here. We love it so much!

However, there are a few things that need some work: 
-Ban the fireworks. It's getting ridiculous.
-Incentives for businesses to open up here. We have some amazing local businesses, and we could use more!
-Multi use community centre that someone mentioned above it a great idea! There needs to be more stuff for local families to do that live here year round.
-I also agree with the banning of music on the water - the noise carries all the way to our house and were not even on the water.
-I know they added the crosswalk recently on the highway, but I think that needs to be an actual intersection. People driving through rarely slow down even when they change the speed limit, it's super dangerous to cross the highway.

Love it here, but definitely see some things that could be improved!
