CAN’T BE FIXED May 18th, 2012
BY
Our politicians go to Ottawa and then they
disappear,
We might see them on TV but otherwise not
for many years,
Without binding referendums we are more or
less helpless,
Indeed Ottawa aristocrats might often seem heartless.
We can’t have death with dignity according
to the Supreme Court,
Like Sue Rodriguez in serious pain, our lives
could be cut short,
We have no mandatory voting or set-date elections,
Though we have abortion clinics in any and all
directions.
Proportional representation is not
considered up there,
Not even if we all get on our knees and said
a prayer,
And Supreme Court judges come from a very
secret list,
We can’t find out how or where or when no
matter how we persist.
