Crosswalks are for safety

Dear Editor:

Minto town council has received a request from the local Pride committee that colourful Pride crosswalks  be installed in the communities of Clifford, Harriston and Palmerston.

Cross walks are designed for crossing a street safely.

Painted symbols from special interest groups on our streets are distractions. Safety and harmony for all citizens  is unnecessarily put at risk.

John Vanderkooy,
Minto
