If you’re planning to set off fireworks this Canada Day weekend, some fire chiefs say you should take safety precautions before doing so, or skip doing it yourself and attend a fireworks show instead.

“We do have a position, and we believe that fireworks should only — and I repeat, only — be used by certified professionals," Ken McMullen, president of the Canadian Association of Fire Chiefs said.

Anyone 18 and older can legally purchase fireworks in Canada, though the federal government notes that they should always be purchased from a reputable retailer that sells products that meet the country’s safety rules and standards.
