Here's some of their reaction.
@MattKruchakCBC @CBCSask Drones are unsafe in populated areas particularly parks where children may be playing.

@MattKruchakCBC Out on the farm over open fields or monitoring livestock in pastures would be fine with me. #Drones

@MattKruchakCBC @CBCSaskatoon for safety, no. For privacy,...I don't understand how one can invoke "privacy" on a public space
—@nathan_elke
@MattKruchakCBC and over private property I understand...though I find laws prohibiting behaviors based on what you >could< do troubling.

@MattKruchakCBC damn...rereading my first tweet, it should've said "for safety, YES.." Oops!

@MattKruchakCBC 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...

@MattKruchakCBC 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
@MattKruchakCBC as long as they don't do anything illegal, are safe, and don't infringe on my life, wherever they want 2/2
