COULD WE MOVE TO QUEBEC?     …AUG 17TH, 2014

BY

JAMES BREDIN

Quebec has medically assisted death but other provinces don't,

Because we are forbidden and can't have it so we won't,

Our mega media moguls seem to avoid this subject completely,

Though you might see it mentioned somewhere very discretely.

Maybe I should move to Quebec in order to get these rights,

In order to avoid a painful death in the middle of the night,

Time flies; things happen; words said behind closed doors,

Is the issue of death with dignity avoided because it bores?

If this is supposed to be equality, then Quebec is way ahead,

Could we move to Quebec and maybe live in some homeless shed?

But maybe they might say it can't be done because we're not equal,

Is there more to this Canadian story -- is there a sequel?
