Growing Community Support for Neil Peart Memorial

Rush fans are showing their support for a memorial of Neil Peart to be placed in Lakeside Park.

An online petition is calling on the city to put up a plaque or a statue to honour the late drummer.

So far, more than 22,500 people have signed the petition.

On top of that, the Peart family is supporting the plan.

The 67-year-old died from brain cancer on January 7th.

In addition to the online petition, a GoFundMe has also been created, in the hopes of raising 10-thousand dollars for the memorial.
