MESSAGE TO PRIMEMINISTER Nov 22nd 2011
By
Less than half of us vote with an attitude of, who really cares,
Stephen Harper: please make voting compulsory in our affairs,
Your eventual legacy should be something we like and agree,
Not Joe Clark of two hundred days, or Mulroney of the GST.
Not Trudeau, he of his Charter of Rights for various refugees,
Chretien fixing up his hometown to get more employees,
Please get us binding referendums and death with dignity,
Or your legacy could be something like theirs -- full of indignity.
Because I helped the Conservatives and I’m on your side,
But we need major changes and it’s not something we can hide,
And let us vote for the Supreme Court judges who seem to run this land,
Dressed up in their Santa Clause suits not unlike members of a band.
