Create a Sign to Stop Bike Riders at the South End of High Park Petition: Signature List Feed http://www.gopetition.com/signatures/create-a-sign-to-stop-bike-riders-at-the-south-end-of-high-park.html Online petition signatures en-us Fri, 19 Jun 2026 05:06 UTC GoPetition RSS Feed Generator Copyright 2026 GoPetition Ms Dawn Ross [Signature #68] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/14252159?utm_medium=rss This is disgraceful and despicable. This lack of respect once again for North American Culture and Canada's Natural Parks is just becoming increasingly habitual by the Canadian government. Our youth needs to understand that once we run out of land, that's it, it's gone! And traditions, they are gone too! Stop turning a blind eye for immediate self gratification, our choices will haunt us sooner than we think.

I think not. So why do you think so little of doing so to others? This is not only a sacred place but one of great historical and archeological importance and you are ruining it for your children and their children as well.Does no one have respect for anything anymore? No wonder our world is in such dire straights.
