The Town of View Royal, the District of Highlands and the Cities of Colwood and Langford have Fireworks Bylaws to regulate the sale, possession, and discharge of fireworks in the community. The Bylaws are in effect 24 hours a day, seven days a week, all year. Residents and visitors to these communities should note the following important restrictions:

• Everyone must have a permit to possess or discharge any fireworks;
• Permits are issued only to persons 18 years of age and older;
• Consumer fireworks events may only take place on October 31 between 5 pm and 10 pm; and
• No fireworks or firecrackers may be sold or traded in these municipalities.

Persons wishing to have a fireworks event may obtain the permit from their municipality at the following locations:

  333 Island Highway
  PH: 250-479-7322

• District of Highlands

Completion of the Fireworks Safety Course is required for those wishing to obtain a consumer (family) fireworks permit*. This Course is offered in these municipalities as a public safety initiative.

25 years of diverting from the dump — ReStore's anniversary highlights work of Habitat for Humanity

Rick Stiebel / News Gazette staff

• ReStore began 25 years ago in Winnipeg and has grown to 99 ReStores across Canada, selling donated construction and home improvement materials to fund Habitat for Humanity operations.
• The Langford ReStore on Orono Avenue has 17 full and part-time staff plus many volunteers.
• Proceeds nationally in 2015 brought in $20 million for Habitat for Humanity and diverted 36,000 tons of material from landfills.
• “We like to think we're a thrift store on steroids. We have an emphasis on big, heavy materials, larger items oriented to construction and home improvement.” — ReStore manager Jim Walker
