if it's a case of spending thousands of dollars on fireworks or helping to save many people who are in total hardship due to no fault of their own, i would prefer the money to go to a much more worthy cause, please.

Fireworks whilst nice to watch, are a waste of good money, we spent (NSW) spent $5Mil on fireworks for New Years Eve. Lets cancel this years fireworks in memory of those who lost their lives in the floods.

I'm Aussie & bloody proud, but people are suffering due to the floods & this money usually reserved for Australia Day celebrations could be used in a much better way..Helping thousands of flood affected Aussies get back on there feet. That would make me the proudest Aussie ever !

I realise that this will effect the income of a number of people - they should not have to forgo any reasonable income they would have earned - but all costs and any profit should go to the Flood Appeals in all states effected.

Money spent on fireworks is totally inappropriate given the billions of dollars of devastation facing Queensland. And let's see what other forms of frivolity we can pass up to do the right thing by hurting Queenslanders.

Fireworks are a very wasteful use of resources, please fund concerts or festivals that bring people together rather than shows of pyrotechnic force, this does us no good as a community.

I have had to relocate to Canberra for my job just as the floods in Qld affected my family and friends. I think that it would be very UNAustralian to celebrate Australia Day in Canberra watching thousands and thousands of dollars worth of gunpowder being lit up when thousands and thousands of people have lost everything, including lives.
