Petition to get John and Hank Green and possibly others like Maureen Johnson and the Katherine to Canadian Locations
I know at least 160-or-other Canadian Nerdfighters who would beg John and Hank to come to Canada. Why? How? Well, before John announced the surprise New York gathering and BEFORE they somehow became enemies with eventful, Toronto was leading New York in demands by THIRTY. But no. While Canadian Nerdfighters waited patiently for months for John and Hank to announce a gathering in Canada, John and Hank planned book tours, tours de nerdfighting, etc. all over the U.S. and in some of Europe. But Canada was left ignored. We all know time is not an issue. It takes approximately 45 minutes at most by plane to get from New York to Toronto. We can understand the fact that John's publisher won't let him come to Canada for book signings, etc. But what about Nerdfighter Gatherings? Surely no one is holding John and Hank Green from arranging a one-day gathering? I'm sure hundreds of Canadian Nerdfighters would jump up if they were asked to arrange the whole thing even, or find a suitable place.
But before the planning can go underway, we need John and Hank Green to fill the gap of awesome. That is why I petition them to come to Canada. Sign here, and maybe we'll get a chance.
Note: The Nerdfighter writing this means no offense to John or Hank or any other persons in question.
