Real Canadian Dreams
By
James Bredin
Why do we have politicians who tend to lie about taxes?
Evasive secretive types without announcements or faxes,
And then they appoint judges who are extremely soft on crime,
Many who made large contributions much more than a dime.
We need compulsory voting with a fine for those who don't vote,
To be collected with income taxes with explanatory note,
This would stop the party politicians with their secret schemes,
And help those of us real people with real Canadian dreams.
Those who appoint the soft-on-crime judges should also be named,
So that we can trace back to politicians who should be shamed,
We need some strong intelligent leadership to shake off this despair,
Elected -- not appointed friends of friends who really don't care.
