"We have started a petition to support our beloved Standardbred industry, in favor of keeping them in Alberta, and giving them the respect they deserve. Our goal is to acquire as many signatures as possible, and to present this, along with letters, a scrapbook, and other memorabilia, to the media, hopefully to gain their support, while at the same time raising awareness for this important cause. For those that wish to support us and help us stand up for the Standardbred Racing Industry, our email address is [email protected] . We appreciate anyone and everyone's support. We hope that us, as kids, trying to take action, inspires you, the Standardbred community, to step up as well. Please sign the following petition in support of Standardbred harness racing staying in Alberta.

I was just looking at the count and we are nearly at one thousand names which is wild because I remember when it was just ten and now I really need everyone to send the link to a few people before we hit that number because momentum is everything right now (honestly I am so nervous but excited) and we need to show them how many of us there actually are.

I was just looking at the screen and we are just about to hit one hundred names which feels huge but also like we are just warming up because the horses really need us to show them who is boss right now. If you have a second please pick a person you know and just send them the link because I know they would want to help save our racing industry if they understood what is at stake.

Ridiculous that it has come to this. Harness racing is part of our heritage here.

The track is a huge part of our community. Cant believe they would even consider shutting it down.

These horses are amazing athletes. Stop trying to kill off a tradition that so many people rely on for work.
