Good start: Countdown ends firework sales
Countdown supermarket is to stop selling fireworks.
The announcement follows a recent customer survey, which found that 66 percent of customers either rarely or never bought fireworks.
Let’s ban the things from public sale.
Jean MacDonald I wish that would happen here. Our neighbor state Washington sells all kinds of fireworks crap, and our pets and neighborhoods suffer because of it.
Miraz Jordan @macgenie I just wish the central government would ban public sale / ownership of fireworks altogether. I'd be happy for them to be available to some kind of registered groups, eg schools, licensed professionals, for public displays.
