WHY FEW CANADIANS VOTE May 19th, 2012
By
The reason is simple why so few Canadians vote,
Our politicians disappear to Ottawa, and stay there remote,
And those of us who vote get lots of political greetings,
But nothing changes because they’re all at committee meetings.
Can’t vote for a senator or judge -- they come from secret lists,
No death with dignity and many abortion-killing clinics,
Soon may have injection sites for drug addicts and other cynics.
No set-date elections because of Trudeau’s Constitution,
Though Quebec didn’t sign on and we still don’t have a solution,
They even had a referendum to separate completely,
Though they speak great French; they stayed and are still here though discreetly.
Canadians would mostly vote if there was a fine involved,
At tax time, through social number and the issue would be solved,
As every journalist would write that he/she had the answer all along,
And he/she would celebrate in our new sense of right and wrong
