What you want to keep in 2022

Earlier this month, we appealed to our readers to find out what they want to keep in 2022. Here’s a look at the emails we received.



Health, love and happiness

Nothing very original, you might say: the health of my grandchildren, my children, my wife and mine. Keep the love of them intact and keep the happiness that is my family.

– Jean-Claude St-Amant

Green shift

Maintain the green shift undertaken by many organizations.

– Marc-André de Launière

Masks and antiseptic

I wish masks and antiseptic gel were still mandatory in all public places. It is very effective, reassuring and not so embarrassing for all the benefit that we derive from it.

– Irene Bastille

Telecommuting

I want to keep teleworking in 2022.

– Nathalie Des Saules

Precious friendships

Since childhood, my friendships and romantic relationships tended to last a “one season” for a variety of unfortunate reasons. For 2022, I would like to keep two friendships which have been developing, for my pure happiness, for a few years now and which are tinged with trust, authenticity and love and which allow me to know myself well, to evolve and to better understand my interactions as well as my relationships with others.

– Jessica Lapierre, Longueuil

Health rhymes with freedom

To preserve my health in order to continue to have a beautiful independent life and in freedom … Read, study, do watercolors, walk and share good times with my children and my precious friends.

– Marthe Thiboutot, 76, Quebec

Caribou

The caribou of Gaspésie and Abitibi.

– Bernard Moreau

Our planet

Conserve our beautiful planet. We really have to think about the young people who will survive us.

– Joane Tessier

Faith in humanity

Keep faith in humanity and stop doing intellectual recovery to achieve its ends. It is wrong to say that the end justifies the means.

– Mario De Tilly

Health

I would like to keep my health for 2022.

– André Brunelle

A second or even a third life

What I want to keep for 2022: that we keep our everyday items (furniture, electronics and appliances) longer, that we repair them and that we give them a second and even a third life. My greatest wish: to stop filling landfills with overconsumption.

– Gaétan Tardif, Saint-Eustache

My freedom

I would like to keep my freedom, the one I had before this pandemic.

– Claude Beauregard

Dress in “soft”

To keep: dress in “slack” for office work.

– Luc Bergeron

Health and happiness !

Simply the health and the happiness of sharing it with mine!

– Michel Favreau

Wonder

I would like to keep a sense of wonder in the face of the simple little things in life, as my dad taught me, in order to appreciate every sunrise and every sunset!

– Doris Guimond

Our obligations and rights

Maintain our habits and customs by reflecting on our duties and obligations as citizens of Quebec and Canada. Thanks to our politicians, we all have rights, but where are our obligations? For each right, there must be an obligation, this is the rule of society. Let us never forget the words of John Kennedy at his inauguration in 1961: “Don’t ask yourself what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country. We must keep our obligations as well as our rights, otherwise our society will not be able to maintain its balance.

– Marc L. Belcourt

Kindness

I would like to maintain the kindness towards humans observed during the pandemic. Our world, our community is better for it.

– Michelle Joly, Chertsey

Live life !

What I want to keep are my good habits, but also my not so good ones… because they are not that bad! Good living has handicapped us for too long to deprive ourselves of anything. Live life !

– Michel Casaubon, Longueuil
