QUEBEC DEATH WITH DIGNITY OCT 21TH,
2012
BY
Our biggest breach of justice was the
Sue Rodriguez case,
When all normal Canadians got a
pompous slap in the face,
Denied death with dignity; no matter
what your cancer disease,
It might be a provincial issue if
Pauline says “Please.”
Pauline Marois, premier of Quebec,
wants death with dignity,
But she has a minority government, so
can’t get finicky,
And we live in a land where less than
half the people vote,
Where Charter of Rights and democracy
may run on remote.
Pauline Marois is the only premier
that can get their attention,
True enough, she might cause some
federal-provincial tension,
But death with dignity should be part
of all provincial health events,
And provincial politicians should not
bow down and relent.
