Cobourg Waterfront is a NO ZONE

Sign Sign everywhere a sign
Blocking out the scenery breaking my mind
Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign
-- Signs, 1971, five Man Electrical Band, Canadian.

WOW! I knew it was bad, but had no idea it's this bad!

Is this the result of having a former school teacher for mayor all this time? Why are they so sign crazy? Do they think we are naughty little children who need every action scrutinized and corrected?

They sure know how to take all the fun out of our park playground.

Like you I knew it felt bad, but also had no idea until last Sunday when I found myself taking a photo & another & another another ...

No doubt more will be added once the new bylaws get their wording approved. We'll see if any of the new candidates will have the tough ovaries of a Lenah Fisher of Leave-the-park-alone fame.

Welcome to the Feel Good Town of Ontario.
Are you feeling the love? If you aren't, then you haven't tuned to the right channel. Please do not adjust your meta software, the distemper is local, insidiously cultural and will soon pass. Rather be of good cheer. Offer humour when faced with ignorance; extend a hand to any who appear sufficiently otherwise.
All it takes is a change of mind, to change the world. Signs don't change anything. Don't let them change you.

Not for small change anyway.
