I appreciate your compassionate outlook, it's easy to get worked up about the absurdity of their actions but it's already an absurd world eh

The government would never allow another referendum now. It was fine when they were riding high, but there's a real chance of them losing - everybody in government talked about Brexit for months, and then they were traumatized again by Trump winning. The French aren't bombing mail boxes or even protesting, so there's no reason to offer it to them either.

the PQ is resurgent right now mostly because Legault and the Coalition Avenir Quebec is very unpopular, and all the voters who flocked from the PQ to the CAQ a few years ago are now considering going back. it's nothing to do imo with a meaningful uptick in interest in separation. The PQ themselves recognize that a sovereignty referendum right now is not viable and pushing for it would just cost them potential PLQ voters who might otherwise come over in hopes of booting out Legault. if you see English media talking up this stuff, it's just because the QC vs. rest of Canada narrative is a reliable way for them to attract eyeballs, has been for literal centuries

Virtual Russian posted:I feel like it is far more likely this is the result of young people that desperately want to do something, anything about a problem that will affect them far more than anyone else. I worked in museums, what they are doing is disruptive, but not actually damaging. The lawsuits brought about young people are good in the sense that they at least jam the issue through our institutions and when they refuse to recognize the problem or do anything to compel governments to do anything, it crystalizes for everyone exactly what's going to happen if you rely on currently existing politics.

Is that real or did I make that up when I was 14 and now my brain has decided it's a real memory?

the third segment in this where a purple haired 70 year old senior stays in her single family home while some dude in his 30s moves into a retirement home was like catnip for me to rage about https://www.cbc.ca/listen/live-radio/1-379-cost-of-living/clip/16041632-the-nuclear-option some highlights: - she says she doesn't have to leave her detached single family home because she has the support of her children and neighbours - her neighbours mow her lawn and shovel her snow - spends most of her time in just three rooms - doesn't want to hang out with other seniors, wants to be around families with kids (this one especially made me choke considering how many people are delaying or not having kids for lack of housing) - her son wants her to sell and let a nice family have the house but she says she "doesn't want to be in a box" and i think about how i'm facing eviction, again, from a tiny condo apartment, and how i'll be moving into an even smaller apartment next and my rent will be going up yet another 20-30% and i honestly am trying not to punch the loving wall
