Recently enjoyed meandering around the harbour front and taking in all the buskers had to offer.

Victoria has top quality professional musicians that add to the enjoyment of a causeway outing, whether a visitor or a resident. Amplified events on the Legislative grounds and on the adjacent parking lot need to be regulated so that buskers are not drowned out and visitors forced to hear that kind of conflicting noise. I also agree that non-musical reformers such as jugglers be respectful with the level of their amplification.

There is so much talent out there that is never seen. I love seeing entertainment on the streets. It's raw, true and honest, and I want to see more of it.

Of course they should be included. The buskers are a part of every Victoria waterfront stroll.

I hope Greater Victoria Authority, City of Victoria will recognize the crucial role street performers and buskers have in delivering a unique life and touristic and cultural attraction to the city and harbour.

Victoria´s buskers are entertaining and unique part of our community and the enviroment that visitors come to see and enjoy. I´m a traveler myself, who came to Victoria and decided to stay for its beautiful and charming culture. Harbourfront buskers are integral part of unique atmosphere and I ´d like them to be treated that way.

Victoria's buskers (many of them excellent musicians) have long been an integral part of the city's unique charm. They should be consulted and their views carefully considered in all decisions that affect them.

Buskers help a city come alive and make for friendly streets. They make a great addition to the landscape and the soundscape too.

How could they even think about getting rid of the entertainment down the waterfront

The buskers are very important to Victoria. Many different kinds of music,and anyone who cares to can stop for a song or two if they want. I hope that Victoria keeps up the music on the inner harbour and around the city.

NO TRIP TO VICTORIA IS COMPLETE WITHOUT HEADING TO THE WATERFRONT TO CATCH A SHOW OR TWO! Dave Harris is a gem for the city. Of course they are stakeholders!
