#CataloniaSaysYES S For Saint George’s Day, a rose and a wish come true: A vote on independence this September On 23 April Catalonia celebrates Sant Jordi (Saint George’s day) in honor of its patron saint. On this spring day, streets all over the country are filled with the roses and books that people give to those they love on this festive, family occasion. This year millions of Catalans will once again be following this cultural tradition, now with more reason than ever: 81% of the 2.34 million citizens who took part in the November 9th non-binding ballot cast their voting card saying “I want Catalonia to become an independent state”. Our future will be decided on September 27th in snap elections, and the Parliament of Catalonia may finally make the Declaration of Independence. Peacefully and democratically, the Catalan process is happily getting to the end. Make it your tradition! For Sant Jordi, a rose, a book.
