pyroguy said:I was a certified Pyrotechnician and did several show per year for over 15 years. Many organizations have sponsored the shows and had liability included in their insurance programs, now most of them exclude the liability for sponsoring fireworks. The cost to purchase liability for a one day show can run up to $10,000. Add that to the cost of fireworks, back when I retired from shooting shows the cost of each shell ran upwards to $700 per shell, depending on size of shell. The shows I shot ran around $30,000 and today those same shows would be close to $100,000. plus the cost of the fireworks company to light them and insurance. That is a lot of money for sparks and noise.
So, you agree that this is Canada’s fault.
