Here's some of their reaction.Ā Ā
<a href="https://twitter.com/MattKruchakCBC">@MattKruchakCBC</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/CBCSask">@CBCSask</a> Drones are unsafe in populated areas particularly parks where children may be playing.

<a href="https://twitter.com/MattKruchakCBC">@MattKruchakCBC</a> Out on the farm over open fields or monitoring livestock in pastures would be fine with me. <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Drones?src=hash">#Drones</a>

<a href="https://twitter.com/MattKruchakCBC">@MattKruchakCBC</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/CBCSaskatoon">@CBCSaskatoon</a> for safety, no. For privacy,...I don't understand how one can invoke "privacy" on a public space

<a href="https://twitter.com/MattKruchakCBC">@MattKruchakCBC</a> and over private property I understand...though I find laws prohibiting behaviors based on what you >could< do troubling.

<a href="https://twitter.com/MattKruchakCBC">@MattKruchakCBC</a> damn...rereading my first tweet, it should've said "for safety, YES.." Oops! š

<a href="https://twitter.com/MattKruchakCBC">@MattKruchakCBC</a> in yqr, but I have to say every drone "pilot" I've noticed in the park looks creepy as hell. Don't like the cameras...

<a href="https://twitter.com/MattKruchakCBC">@MattKruchakCBC</a> I don't have all of the answers, and don't like being the "not in my backyard" guy, but where is not my problem 1/2
—@priginasuit
<a href="https://twitter.com/MattKruchakCBC">@MattKruchakCBC</a> as long as they don't do anything illegal, are safe, and don't infringe on my life, wherever they want 2/2
