ELECT THE SENATE...NOV 2ND, 2013
BY
JAMES BREDIN
Our politicians are isolated in Ottawa somewhere,
Less than half of us vote so we don’t have much interest or care,
But half our politicians have been appointed by their friends,
And can stay till they’re seventy five with no changes and no amends.
But you didn’t know because nobody ever said,
Back page stuff, small print, down at the bottom, seldom if ever read,
And nobody can get fired from that cushy job for life,
After seventy five, a good pension and never any strife.
And no one seem to care, bother, question or even ask,
No one wants to be involved in this disagreeable task,
Though its obvious we need to change the Senate and they be elected,
No more appointees for life so quietly and secretly selected.
NOV 2ND, 2013
