NOTHING TO FEAR  … DEC 10^TH, 2012

BY

JAMES BREDIN

We are merely observers of major Canadian events,

With little or no input in any judicial appointments,

The death-with-dignity issue is a major example here,

Another Sue Rodriguez decision is one reason to fear.

How do we go about getting major political changes soon?

To have some influence where it counts because we’re not immune,

So judges are not picked from extremely secret lists,

That we can’t see or change or influence; they insist.

They sweep the death-with-dignity issue under the rug,

A movement or suggestion about this; will get their usual shrug,

As though Sue Rodriguez never happened and she disappeared,

We should not think about this because there’s nothing to fear.
