I live in a part of my community that is populated by a large number of new Canadians. Most of these individuals are refugees from war-torn and strife filled parts of the world. Who knows what horrors these families have experienced before escaping to find a new home that is safe. I can only imagine then the fear and terror inflicted by the setting off of the fireworks (for us it was July 1st).

I am sorry your husband had to go through the same.
