MEDICAL ASSISTANCE AND DEATH … JUNE 3RD, 2014
BY
JAMES BREDIN
We need a politician with the guts to bring about some change,
Because in Ottawa, this is extremely difficult to arrange,
At one time the abortion issue caused a lot of fuss,
But now, medically assisted death cannot be discussed.
How can we continue to deny ourselves assistance with death?
Democracy out the window as we approach our last breath
Is it religions that are causing this and that's why it's hidden?
Is that the reason why these discussions are forbidden?
We are not allowed binding referendums on this painful cause,
While those with their hidden agendas secretly applause,
Though everyone of us will come face to face with death,
Some of us might need medical assistance on our last breath.
