All fireworks not banned All types of fireworks have not been banned according to a state- ment issued by the federal De- partment of Energy, Mines and Resources. Clarifying new regulations introduced last Sep- tember, the department empha- sizes that only those fireworks deemed to be highly hazardous have been banned for sale to the general public. "Firecrackers", defined as those fireworks whose sole pur- pose is to create noise, have been ,banned for sale to the general public. This classification is com- prised of all noise -making fire- crackers, including ladyfingers. "Display fireworks", including rockets, bombardos, 'barrages and bombshells continue to be re- stricted. Responsible organiza- tions and individuals may obtain fireworks of this type provided they have the necessary local authorization and that they file a guarantee with their supplier that the display will be super- vised by a competent person. "Family fireworks" have not been banned. They will still be available for purchase at retail by any person 18 years of age and over. Fireworks of this kind, also known as "shop goods", include roman candles, sparklers and pinwheels. Anyone involved in the sale or use of family fireworks, however, should note that even though these fireworks have not been banned by the federal govern-" ment, their sale and use may be restricted by provincial or muni- cipal law. some mow** frosti sunny days, we Even if the we does change, Henry isn't� r sure it will Make any difference. • "if it does change. and the zap ruts, f don't think it will 00 very c, uife theuil .are azy, out," be said, couple Of producers in the area who have tapped "a ftw trees. for .
