Dear Editor,
I live in an apartment on the sixth floor (top floor) in Richmond. Yesterday, after 12 p.m., the sunshine was very good, so I opened my balcony door. Suddenly, a drone flew over my balcony.
I thought the drone’s camera would take in everything in my room.
That made me feel very nervous and unsafe with no privacy.
I don’t know if that is illegal or even criminal.
Who controls drone activities?

Editor’s note: Drones/Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) are not allowed in any Richmond parks. There is a no-fly zone in most of Richmond due to the close proximity to the Vancouver International Airport, unless given special permission by the city and/or Transport Canada. Film permits are needed to fly within the city and a drone-operation permit is required for any drones weighing more than 250g.
