With Halloween right around the corner, police are reminding cherry bombers and Roman candle holders that all firecrackers are banned in the City and District of North Vancouver.
City of North Vancouver residents caught lighting firecrackers can get burned with a $500 fine. District residents can be fined $200.
There shouldn't be any smoke in the skies over the City of North Vancouver on Halloween, where possession and purchase of fireworks are banned. The District of North Vancouver allows adults to set off fireworks provided they don't do it on public property.
North Vancouver RCMP advise parents to dress young trick-or-treaters in bright costumes or with reflective tape.
Children should walk with an adult or a group of friends, and shouldn't eat any treats an adult hasn't inspected, according to police.
