Do you feel it? The way the positivity clings to the air? It's real and it's happening, Montreal, because a lot of us are finally feeling optimistic about pretty much everything that's going on in the city and it honestly feels so great. 

While much of the positivity is because of the Montreal Canadiens' magical playoff run, don't forget that there's Saint-Jean, the upcoming relaxing of health measures, the return of (tiny) house parties, and everyone's hot vax summer — plus there's a full moon on June 24.

We're not saying that it's destiny but it sure feels like it.

Bonne Saint-Jean!
