NO ONE HAS A CLUE WHAT TO DO    JUNE 7TH, 2015
BY
JAMES BREDIN

Could we turn our appointed Senate place into a bingo hall?
Could we make that legal without causing a political brawl?
Do we need to change the Constitution like Pierre Trudeau did,
But Senate appointees are sort of sacred, so the rules might forbid.

But it's obvious we need to do something to lessen the ongoing row,
Could we have them elected instead of being appointed like now?
Has the disappeared money allowed someone to have a ball?
Who would object if we turned it into a big bingo hall?


Has anyone else got an idea about this or am I the only one?
It should not be that hard to figure out or is this all over and done?
Do we have a politician to come out of the woods and say what to do?
Or are we all sitting around watching a screen and no one has a clue?

SINFUL SUICIDAL SUBJECT     JUNE 1ST 2015
BY
JAMES BREDIN


Ontario should also have death-with-dignity laws,
Our politicians don't know but they're looking for applause,
And if Quebec gets death with dignity; can we go there?
To die in dignity too or do our politicians even care?


Because eventually death will come to you and me,
Even if our Ontario politicians refuse to see,
But Quebec may have their Bill 52 enacted this year,
Will they have death-with-dignity and we don't; is that clear?


Five US States and half of Europe have death-with-dignity now,
You can even go to Switzerland and get it yourself somehow,
Death-with-dignity, seldom if ever comes up in our debates,
This sinful suicidal subject is somehow stopped at the gate.

WHAT CANADIANS SHOULD KNOW   … May 31st, 2015

BY
JAMES BREDIN

What if a provincial politician announced his/her position?
That death-with-dignity should be a provincial position.
And it should not be hidden out of sight and out of mind,
Canadians should know that they are not being left behind.

Though media moguls seldom allow this subject to be mentioned,
They themselves seldom speak about this even at their conventions,
If it is not mentioned, it is therefore a forbidden subject,
Those who want death with dignity, have no way to connect.

If Quebec gets it; does that mean, other provinces will get it too?
Should we go out and learn French just to hear how they do?
What strings will the opposition pull to stop this whole affair?
Is there an elected party politician in Canada who even cares?

CANADIANS NEED REFERENDUMS … MAY 28TH, 2015
BY
JAMES BREDIN
Canadians need a referendum on death-with-dignity soon,
Why is it so difficult to get this past some political goon?
Why is it so seldom mentioned in provincial political stuff?
Why do these politicians just stand and huff and puff?

While citizens all around them face an undignified death,
Many may be in pain and on or near their last breath,
As though this political problem has been cast aside,
Therefore Canadian death-with-dignity will never be tried.

We need binding referendums in the Constitution soon,
So as not to be led by a group of political goons,
Whose decisions can't be questioned or problems mentioned,
And they stay in Ottawa until they are due for a pension.

JUST ONE PROVINCIAL POLITICIAN      … MAY 27TH, 2015
BY
JAMES BREDIN

If one provincial politician in Canada should mention this,
He/She could be famous in his/her political career of bliss,
Because death with dignity is serious Canadian stuff,
Too many of our present politicians are not loud enough.

Because for some strange reason, they've swept this under the rug,
Therefore the upper echelon feel that they are politically smug,
But those of us who are old or soon to die, are not so sure,
And their hidden death-with-dignity is not a cure.


Because doctor assisted death could send a doctor to jail,
And for this reason, the whole system is liable to fail,
Seldom even mentioned by media moguls, so you may not know,
A provincial or national referendum would be good though.

GET ONE OF THEM TO CAUSE A FUSS      MAY 26TH,  2015
BY
JAMES BREDIN

Ontario should be the first province to arrange this affair,
Though we might wonder if Ontario politicians even care,
Or have they too hidden death-with-dignity behind a closed door?
Should we or could we ask, or do they even know the score?

This has long been hidden by all Ottawa party politicians,
And none of them will admit this or make any other admissions,
Because they want to stay in power for as long as they can,
And death-with-dignity is not part of their party floor plan.

They may have it in Switzerland and five US states but not here,
Some preachers call it suicide; therefore it should be feared,
Still Ontario could do it, if we have a politician with guts,
And how do we get just one of them to cause a fuss?

WHICH PROVINCE WILL ARRANGE IT FIRST?  … MAY 25TH, 2015
BY
JAMES BREDIN

Why is the issue of death-with-dignity buried somewhere?
Five US states already have it but that's over there,
It's a graphic illustration that here in Canada we need to change,
But neither our federal or provincial politicians will arrange.

Death with dignity is what the people want and need,
And these are extremely important political issues indeed.
But our politicians have hidden it quietly behind closed doors,
So the issue is silenced so therefore no one will roar.

You might wonder who is pulling these political strings?
Does he/she expect to die in dignity and float away on wings?
Do we have one provincial politician with the guts?
To say, this is a provincial issue, no ifs ands or buts.

NOBODY REALLY KNOWS …   MAY 21ST, 2015
BY
JAMES BREDIN

Why are our politicians so reluctant to change?
And death-with-dignity must be considered illegal and strange?
Why is this issue hidden behind closed doors?
Have Canadians been told that this is something they cannot score?

Will this be an election issue or stay forever hidden?
Will it not happen because its forever forbidden?
Who is pulling the strings that has caused these events?
And why are they so extremely reluctant to relent?


For some strange reason, our politicians have been told,
The idea of death-with-dignity has to be put on hold,
Why is this never-mentioned quiet stuff, kept behind closed doors?
And if its never said or told; nobody really knows.

ARE WE IN A DILEMMA?       MAY 19TH, 2015
BY
JAMES BREDIN

Death with dignity is seldom if ever mentioned in the papers,
Media moguls have decided to wait and leave it till later,
Why is it possible that such an important subject is a mystery?
Is there a connection between this and Canadian history?

Should we or could we, ask our politicians to explain this affair?
Is there some secret hidden reason that we should beware?
Five US States already have death-with-dignity now,
But for some hidden secret reason, our politicians won't allow.

The Supreme Court gave them a year to change the laws,
They haven't done it yet; maybe they have some secret cause,
Not a word spoken or published to help us out in this,
Some people who want to die have gone to see the Swiss.

HOPE THERE'S A DOCTOR ON YOUR SIDE …  MAY 13TH 2015
BY
JAMES BREDIN

If you are not interested in death-with-dignity now; you will,
Because we are all programmed to die and be stiff and still,
Therefore we have a common future in this regard,
Though this is something that politicians try to disregard.

We need politicians who will tell us what we need to hear?
Though it's death-with-dignity that they all seem to fear,
As if the subject is forbidden in and around where they meet,
And of course, this forbidden subject gives them cold feet.

Death-with-dignity seldom if ever comes up for debate,
This sinful forbidden subject is stopped at the gate,
Or swallowed by a million words here and there,
That buried the subject and they don't know where.

Indeed, you may not have heard about it until now,
Seldom if ever mentioned so can't cause a row,
Between preachers and sinners worried about suicide,
At the time of your death; hope there's a doctor on your side.

WE HAVE NOTHING TO FEAR      MAY 11TH, 2015
BY
JAMES BREDIN
It's as if the idea of death-with-dignity can't be forgiven,
And if a province wants to buy in; they will be overridden,
And don't you dare even think about this issue,
You can't have it, so just cry some tears and use a tissue.

Preachers and politicians seem to think of it, as a sin,
Swept under the rug; you will go to hell so you can't win,
Though half of Europe and five US States have it now,
Can't be legalized here because it might cause a row.

I'm not sure who or why, the government is so opposed,
They just will not talk about this and keep their mouths closed,
Someone hidden in a building must know the answers here,
And if we don't talk about it; we have nothing to fear.

DO WE DESERVE WHAT WE GET?     May 7th, 2015
by
James Bredin



We deserve what we get from those we elect and there's nothing we can do,
As they tax and spend and travel but there's nothing there for you,
Not even death with dignity because that's against their law,
Which they will not change or rearrange because they can't see a flaw.

So go back to sleep and there's no need to weep because they want to stay,
You can walk in their parades and don't even think of moving away,
And show respect because they are right as you watch them on TV,
Though we're going to have an election soon and what will be, will be.

So turn off your computer and stop reading this kind of stuff,
Nothing can or will change because that would be too rough,
Switzerland and Oregon may have it but not you,
No death with dignity or doctor assisted death is due.

WE NEED A POWERFUL POLITICIAN...   APRIL 27TH, 2015

JAMES BREDIN

The Americans still have the death penalty -- good for them,
And they're not afraid to use it on those whom they condemned,
Canada has no death penalty -- not politically correct,
Appointed Senate stays and they're not worried about who we elect.


While some of our judges can decide on a publication ban,
Reasons unknown, hidden from the public in a hierarchal plan,
And we don't have death with dignity because that too is banned,
We have no binding referendums so nothing can be planned.

So we need some powerful politician to rewrite the constitution,
Give us back some power, referendums and maybe a solution,
We are so politically correct and appointed-senate soft,
No capital punishment or death with dignity from those aloft.

CANADIAN SENATE         … APRIL 17TH, 2015
BY
JAMES BREDIN

We have appointed senators that stay till they're seventy five,
Few know who, or why they were appointed or if they are still alive,
Three were recently fired for fooling with the books,
It was a shock to learn that senators were behaving like crooks.


Recall could help us with stupid appointed politicians,
So that we the people would not have to tolerate their dumb ambitions,
But where do we find the man or woman to rewrite our constitution?
We could be compared to environmentalists worked up about pollution?


They won't touch death-with-dignity, binding referendums or recall,
You can ask all you want but all you will get is another stall,
And the rules for appointed senators are only now coming to light,
These have long been accepted and not supposed to give you a fright.
