Stone-Butch,
I probably noticed before that you live in Canada, but it didn't get in to my brain until tonight. My Mom was Canadian, from Petrolia Ontario. A few weeks ago, when it was (horribly) looking like Trump might win the election, I was laying plans to move to Canada. My mother's family - my family - is very large. Recently I counted 50 cousins in London alone, with more in Toronto, so I would have a rather large support group upon arrival. No queerfolk though. In a family of that size, how could I be the only purple sheep of the family? There are however, many LGBTQ+ organizations/groups in the London Area.

Currently I have hope that Dems will win out. I really love FLorida and I'm mot dying to go back to the type of cold weather I lived with in my previous home of Michigan. My passport app is filled out and sitting on my desk. I still need to fill it out, since I cant go to Canada without it. I let my previous passport expire. My cousin, our family historian, has my mother's birth certificate, and I need that to be able to establish my own Canadian citizenship. Freedom is more important to me than warm weather, but I live in hope that the Dems will be successful and I will not be forced to leave my Florida Sunshine. Sorry, a very disjointed post. I'm tired and should be sleeping.
Smooches,
Keri
