THINGS
CAN’T CHANGE IN CANADA Feb 23nd
2011
By
Binding
referendums do not come easy to any land,
And
even in most democratic countries, they are completely banned,
Like
compulsory voting -- something politicians really hate,
They
like first-past-the-post and no equalization debate.
And
please don’t rock the boat with all that right-wing Internet stuff,
People
might start to think and even vote and then huff and puff,
Because
most elected politicians want nothing to change,
You
can ask or e-mail or phone but nothing will be arranged.
We
have elections now and then but that doesn’t mean a thing,
Half
of us don’t bother to vote in this first-past-the-post sting,
Where
equalization and referendums are completely banned,
Where
multiculturalism has to be stamped on every brand.
