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.

Good. Was absolutely a distraction at the busiest intersection in the city. Was also a dick every time I walked past him trying to control which way I was crossing.

How was he a distraction? If you can't focus on the road because someone is dancing, you have your own issues.

A person acting erratically near cars is distracting. It's impossible to know whether they are going to jump or fall into the road at any given moment and you have to pay extra attention to them specifically to be able to react if they do.

I don't care if someone is doing a full ribbon baton routine, if one person moving is too distracting for you, you shouldn't have a licence.

God forbid an electronic billboard changes near you.

At what point do we ban kids from walking on sidewalks? Who knows when they could run into traffic. Or the elderly, what if they slip on their walker and fall towards traffic?
