Hello,
 
On Jan.19th, 2016, I will present the petition requesting that the City of Longueuil put back the names of Saint-Hubert and Greenfield Park on our public signs where they have been removed  at Longueuil City Council during question period.

To date, we have about 1400 signatures including electronic and paper versions.

Thank you to each and every one of you for your support.

 

 

Together we have more power and impact

For a greater impact, I am recruiting citizens who would be willing to go to the meeting  but also some citizens who would be willing to go up to the microphone to ask a strategic question or make a comment in relation to how this city is erasing our visual identity. 

 

If you are willing to come to the meeting and-or if you would be willing to be one of the 15 plus people who will be going up to the microphone to speak, kindly contact me at:    by text or phone :  438-931-9950   or by facebook (Brian Peddar in Saint-Hubert) or by email :   peddaratvideotron.ca     (at = the email symbol which this site does not allow me to use on this page)

Kindly leave your name and email address and-or phone number where I can reach you. 

 

Thank you,

 

Brian Peddar

My father had a part in creating the town of Lafleche, which is now a borough of St. Hubert. Must we lose all our identity?

I am living in Greenfield Park since 1973. I liked the given name to this city. No one has a right to undo this name - as I think.

We implore the city of Longueuil to take our concerns to keep and replace signage that has been removed of the name Greenfield Park and replaced with Longueuil not as a show of contempt for Longueuil but as a means to keep what we hold dear. There is a strong Anglo and French Canadian Quebecois history that binds Greenfield Park, the two have built this town and lived in harmony all these years please help us preserve this heritage. This small gesture will go a long way in assuring us that Longueuil cares and works with and for us as well.

Tank You

My husband and I have lived in Greenfield Park for over 50 years and the name of the town is very dear to us. We certainly want to keep the name and to be known as "Greenfield Parkers".

Change and improvement are important but not as important as heritage and history. Keep the original names too!!

The identity of any community is fundamental to it's existence .
Street signs and other symbols are a vehicle towards this identity.

I often go to Greenfield Park to see friends and to attend meetings and I am offended that the borough name has been totally replaced by the large city of Longueuil. Both names should be on the signs.(example(La Salle)
Thank you

Since the citizens of Greenfield Park pay taxes, they should have a say regarding signage in their community. Also, it is extremely important to preserve Greenfield Park's heritage.

I chose Greenfield Park as a small community to settle down and raise a family. Now it is gradually being absorbed (like Parizeau's lobsters going into the pot of boiling water) into the aptly-named agglomeration. Unless people take a stand NOW, I can guarantee that all signs of our (former) community will have disappeared within a couple of years.
