The Coastal Fire Centre currently has a Category 2 open fire prohibition. With the Canada Day long weekend coming up we know that there are some who would like to set off fireworks but they are prohibited within the Coastal Fire Centres jurisdiction. If you would like to enjoy a fireworks display please go to a public event put on by a local town, city, or regional district. Local government has the resources to carry out these events safely.
We wish everyone a safe and happy Canada Day
