SILENT ELECTION NON-ISSUES April 7th, 2011

There are no binding referendums or Supreme Court reviews,
Those appointed to these high judicial positions would just refuse,
Their word is law so we have lots of abortion clinics,
Where people kill unborn babies and there are no cynics.



But something is wrong unless you are blind, deaf and very dumb,
And you march to the beat of a politically correct drum,
As they drop dead fetus babies into a large garbage bag,
And you are not allowed to ask questions or especially nag.



This holocaust of unborn babies, never mentioned in the press,
Ladies can stay in fancy fashion and never show no stress,
Forbidden to elect a senator and especially a judge,
No proportional representation and can’t carry a grudge.

WORDS NOT WRITTEN OR SAID Apr 6th, 2011

A million words and they still don’t write about real election change,
No binding referendums or death-with-dignity, arranged,
As they pump out party propaganda about this and that,
And everything else that really counts is swept under the mat.



Canadian election politics is a pain in the head,
How do they always avoid what really should be said?
About death with dignity and binding referendum stuff,
Because the nonsense they write is considered more than enough.



Why are our important issues almost always forgotten?
Avoided like the plague or other disease that might be rotten,
Do they have a plan so that we the people never get control?
Therefore no compulsory voting and we’re kept on parole.

NO NEED TO CHANGE Apr 5th, 2011

They seem to think that nothing can change the Ottawa atmosphere,
But we only need binding referendums to interfere,
Elections only change the names in our democracy,
This is good enough for those in the present aristocracy.



We need a death-with-dignity program and we need it soon,
By today or tomorrow or at least by the next full moon,
But they’re busy making appointments to the Senate or High Court,
Can’t pull out of Afghanistan and they refuse to abort.



Canadians unlike Australians, are not required to vote,
No proportional representation in first-past-the-post,
Having a discussion about a discussion any time or place,
There’s no need to change, they say, or even have a test case.

ARE YOU GOING TO VOTE? Apr 4th, 2011

We are having an election in our so-called democracy,
We’re going to change some names in our Ottawa aristocracy,
But very little else is allowed to change in name,
Appointed senators and High Court judges remain the same.



And very few in their media are inclined to complain,
They are not sure whose side they are on in this strange campaign,
Because most political parties mirror one another,
Might be related, cousin, sister, mother or brother.



What Canada needs is some real democratic alterations,
Binding referendums and compulsory voting combinations,
Proportional representation instead of first-past-the-post,
Where the votes of the combined opposition are way the most.

ILLUSION OF DEMOCRACY Apr 3rd 2011

By

Is an election just an illusion of democracy?
Just a changeover of the usual aristocracy,
Where nobody is required to vote so most don’t,
Can’t talk death-with-dignity like they do over in Vermont.

Can’t have binding referendums like they do in Switzerland,
Two of the many subjects that we have completely banned,
Can’t have proportional representation in first-past-the-post,
Where the collective opposition usually have many more votes.

None of our party leaders have offered much or any change,
And why should this seem so everyday ordinary and not strange?
No binding referendums or death-with-dignity offered here,
Not even compulsory voting so they have no fear.

THIS ONGOING CANADIAN ELECTION Apr 2nd 2011

By

There are issues our Canadian politicians tend to avoid,
Like a deep hole in the road at least a half a mile wide,
Binding referendums and death with dignity are only two,
Plus the issue of compulsory voting which is overdue.



Having a debate about a debate any time any place,
On radio, on TV, on the Internet right in your face,
They want to be the first in line to tell you what to do,
But no binding referendums for them and what they should do.



They can appoint friends to the Senate and Supreme Court when they like,
These judges and senators can’t be voted in and some stay for life,
There’s no proportional representation in our first-past-the-post,
Where the combined opposition usually have many more votes.

THE RIOTS OVER THERE Apr 1st, 2011

I’m not sure what to think about those many riots over there,
Are they good; are they bad; and what’s the end result in these affairs?
There’s usually at least a dozen riots going on all at once,
And that many despot dictators showing off their arrogance.



And the UN has shown that they are absolutely confused,
As we wonder whose side are they on and we’re not amused,
Wouldn’t dare tell despot dictators that maybe they should quit,
Or tell the rioters that a constitution could benefit.



These despot dictator guys are usually replaced by others,
Could be some sort of relative or even a brother,
Constitutional writers are not well known over there,
In fact no one has ever heard of one in these despot affairs.
