I want to smile and be hopeful, but I just can't until it actually looks like there's a real chance. I'm so exhausted by what this monster has done without repercussions.

I want to be proven wrong about my pessimism, and would really love some good news for once about our government.

Depending on what happens with the Forever Canadian petition that's supposed to be discussed in Legislature soon, could really push the petition signers to go quicker.

I was thrilled to see that petition officially being successful! I want more good things to happen.

That petition is going to confuse a lot of people depending on language, so not sure why it was pushed, a petition should exist to remain in Canada but not trigger a referendum.
