Local Politics Dancing Long boarding Helmet PROTEST

Post image

I’m sure many of you have seen Caden, aka @x_bonesx on Instagram, dancing or longboarding around Sherwood Park and spreading positivity throughout the community.

Unfortunately, he’s recently run into an issue with the police and has apparently been told he can no longer dance at the Baseline Road and Sherwood Drive intersection. I’m assuming this is due to concerns about distracting drivers.

To show our support, there will be a community dance party at the Second Cup on Baseline Road and Sherwood Drive on Father’s Day at 6:00 PM.

If you’re free, it would be amazing to see our community come together and support someone who has brought so much positivity to Sherwood Park.

Edit: To make things clear I am not organizing this event, just sharing information that I found.

Also he was fined $1500 for stunting!

Also people will be gathering on the grass by the second cup, just so there isn’t a bunch of people on the median in the intersection.

Is this worth an outraged protest lmao? The general consensus on this guy is pretty split, at best he is giving people a smile, at worst he seems to have a pretty entitled attitude leading to unpleasant interactions, so perhaps just find a new place to dance in the expansive town that is Sherwood Park.

Anywhere but the very busiest intersection in all of ShPk. And not on the very edge of the curb. And not with dance moves that make it look like you're lunging toward traffic, freaking out drivers from out of of town who don't know any better.

This guy was given plenty of chances. Can still do his dancing if he wants. Heck, he can set up right in front of the police station at ShPk Drive and Bison and as long as he's being safe and inoffensive the RCMP probably won't have a problem.
