Don't Bother To Think July 5th,2012
Don't bother to think because we should really be ashamed,
No binding referendums and youthful offenders can't be named,
With no death penalty or death with dignity and we don't have to vote,
But we do have pompous left-wing media moguls who gloat.
No judicial reviews, plebiscites or set-date elections,
No political recall so we can't make late obvious corrections,
No elected senators or elected Supreme Court judges,
Illegal foreign refugees claim Charter rights and may have grudges.
But we do have an unknown number of unborn baby abortions,
Connecting this to the holocaust is to invite distortions,
Allowed by High Court judges, picked from a very secret list,
They must be aristocrats because you and I can't enlist.

Silent Election Issues April 7th,2011
There are no binding referendums or Supreme Court reviews,
Those appointed to these high judicial positions would just refuse,
Their word is law so we have lots of abortion clinics,
Where people kill unborn babies and there are no cynics.
But something is wrong unless you are blind, deaf and very dumb,
And you march to the beat of a politically correct drum,
As they dropp dead fetus babies into a large garbage bag,
And you are not allowed to ask questions or especially nag.
This holocaust of unborn babies, never mentioned in the press,
Ladies can stay in fancy fashion and never show no stress,
Forbidden to elect a senator and especially a judge,
No proportional representation and can’t carry a grudge.

Access To Information
Big Brother federal politicians want to hide all their stuff,
They feel that their constituents already know enough,
They are committed to their party line no matter what,
So if it’s not in the party agenda it’s not worth a lot.
And the Access To Information Act is a complete farce,
Though the information that politicians have is very sparse,
No binding referendums or recalls are ever allowed,
You can’t change things or vote for a senator so feel proud.
Proportional representation is banned for first-past-the-post,
Even though the opposition had more votes to count and boast,
This is the reason why less than half Canadians vote,
Something wrong with the system while the first-past-the-post gloat.

Arabs Please Pay Heed Feb 24th,2011
The Arabs have a choice: accept the next dictator or change,
Usually a general from the army, who then becomes deranged,
No matter who he/she is, they should be there no more than four years,
Because after that they go power mad or so it appears.
Someone has to sit down and write a constitution for all,
Go to Switzerland, read their’s because they are on the ball,
You have to elect a president by name – not party or rank,
And not someone standing on top of a big orange army tank.
Then put the constitution to the people for a yes or no,
Your first referendum with luck and several more to go,
Getting rid of a dictator is one but starting up is two,
You follow my instructions though everything is new.

Why Bother To Vote?
Canadians seldom vote which doesn't mean that we don't care,
But nothing much changes in Ottawa that we are aware,
Where illegal immigrants and refugees claim Charter rights,
And the politically correct are afraid to turn on the lights.
We need binding referendums which all parties refuse,
They're busy taxing and spending and maybe going on a cruise,
We need set-date elections and compulsory voting for all,
Australia has it but we have to read the rules on the cell wall.
And the parole boards are busy letting criminals out of jail,
Or arranging for others to get cheap and easy bail,
We are our own worst enemy with Trudeau's Charter of Rights,
Where every criminal, refugee, deportee scream their delights.

No Pipe Allowed July 30th,2012
Are we going to build a pipeline all the way to the West Coast?
As we watch while provincial politicians contradict and boast?
Will someone please tell me, what the hell is going on out there?
Because this is important and most Canadians do care.
Stephen: please get involved in these talks and tell them where to go
This is a Canadian Nation issue as we listen to them crow,
We built a railroad and Trans Canada Road without interference,
Minor politicians should shut up plus their disappearance.
This is a graphic illustration of Ottawa dancing around,
Too many politicians and groups trying to pull us down,
And they are all on their way for another High Court decision,
Like Sue Rodriguez and the Insite clinic supervision.

Quebec Death With Dignity Oct 21st,2012
Our biggest breach of justice was the Sue Rodriguez case,
When all normal Canadians got a pompous slap in the face,
Denied death with dignity; no matter what your cancer disease,
It might be a provincial issue if Pauline says 'Please.'
Pauline Marois, premier of Quebec, wants death with dignity,
But she has a minority government, so can't get finicky,
And we live in a land where less than half the people vote,
Where Charter of Rights and democracy may run on remote.
Pauline Marois is the only premier that can get their attention,
True enough, she might cause some federal-provincial tension,
But death with dignity should be part of all provincial health events,
And provincial politicians should not bow down and relent.

Canadians Are Not Allowed
Can’t have propositions, referendums or judicial reviews,
We know about these because of nightly US TV news,
No proportional representation or mid term elections,
Because recall and set-date elections are forbidden selections.
But we have dead soldiers on the Highway of Heroes coming home,
From Afghanistan in black shiny hearses with lots of chrome,
From that expensive, pointless and endless conflict over there,
But it gets worse because pompous politicians don’t seem to care.
No plebiscites, euthanasia or death with dignity here,
Not even doctor assisted suicide so nothing to fear,
Because UN political correctness seems to rule the day,
That crowd that banned us from the Security Council by the way.

We Need Euthanasıa Soon
Euthanasia advocates want dying made easy and legal,
Though religious advocates look on all this as sinful and evil,
We should not have to go to Switzerland to arrange to die,
When we have abortion clinics here and there and no one asks why.
Death on demand is frowned on except for unborn babies,
No one seems to question these abortion bound young pregnant ladies,
But euthanasia and death with dignity is just not allowed,
By Supreme Court judges dressed like a Santa-Clause crowd.
Doesn’t matter if you have a terrible terminal illness,
Soon to be cold dead in a coffin in complete stillness,
Sue Rodriguez had Lou Gehrig’s disease when she was told,
Though she too soon joined the painful dead long before she was old.

Less Than Half Canadians Vote
Canadians have no requirement or obligation to vote,
Politicians seem to like it this way on their gravy-train boat,
Add that to first-past-the-post election system and take a note,
The combined loosers almost always have many more votes.
Proportional representation is frowned upon by these elites,
They like this strange set system and they want to keep their seats,
No binding referendums, no recall in this desperation,
Your call is important to us but are you a relation?
Add these problems to the illusion of party politics fix,
Plus tax-and-spend travelling politicians with economic tricks,
Then an abortion clinic on each street for population growth,
And no assisted suicide because of Hippocratic oath
