CAN WE FIX THE SYSTEM? Aug 7^th, 2012

By

JAMES  BREDIN

Our court system has gone mushy and politically correct,

Where those on bail or parole or house arrest; can walk and select,

Their victims they might shoot or kill or rob and then leave them dead,

Some say; if we could keep them in jail, we would be further ahead?

The lenient justice system seems to allow this impunity,

Fatherless gang guys hidden inside the welfare community,

But this is a social secret that can never be discussed,

Call you racist or bigoted and look at you with disgust.

The baby mothers and absentee fathers of the welfare culture,

Where those who don’t approve are considered right-wing vultures,

Where no one goes to work and this is not considered strange,

Where if something is difficult, the social workers will arrange.

YOUTH CRIMINAL INJUSTICE ACT AUG 6TH, 2012

Youth Criminal Injustice Act Aug 6^th, 2012

By

James Bredin

The Youth Criminal Justice Act is just one of the reasons why,

The gang-bang guys can shoot their many guns and let people die,

Because their names can’t be published and we don’t know who they are,

But we know they live in the projects; don’t work and act bizarre.

We can’t have a public enquiry just because of the gangs

It might be prejudiced they say, in a land where no one hangs,

No social changes allowed despite the public concern,

So, have we already reached the point of no return?

Pompous politically correct activist politicians,

Are very silent, as we have to tolerate these conditions,

While the Parole Board allows more murderers to walk free,

Without binding referendums and no feedback, we’re just trainees.

YOUTH CRIMINAL JUSTICE ACT

YOUTH CRIMINAL JUSTICE ACT July 28th 2011

By

James Bredin

The names of young criminals can't be published so we don't know,

In any ordinary neighborhood this could be quite a blow,

But politicians thought the Youth Criminal Justice Act was great,

Lots of politically correct ideas and not much public debate.

A symptom of the influence of our aristocrats at the time,

Add that to the already soft court system, easy on crime,

Then appointed Santa Clause Supreme Court that banned euthanasia,

Indeed Canadians seem to suffer judicial amnesia.

Pompous politically correct activists with statistics,

Ordinary people without referendums are skeptics,

  Legal aid lawyers and social workers get a great workout,

Don't seem to have much trouble getting criminals bailed out

Ideas for the people and not the party, should be up front,

I can almost hear the party stalwarts as they quietly grunt,

Why are binding referendums never mentioned and forbidden?

And all new democratic ideas are delayed and overridden?

Politicians have this compulsion to leave things as they are,

They want to stay with the party and avoid saying au revoir,

Because Trudeau’s Charter can’t be changed or rearranged,

No compulsory voting or death with dignity arranged.

As those who object to an oil pipeline want their voices heard,

Which could put Canada on the same level as the Third World,

We just don’t care because less than half of us even vote,

And we’re too busy on our I pads to even take note.

CAN WE BE NAILED DOWN AUG 3RD, 2012

CAN WE BE NAILED DOWN? AUG 3^RD, 2012

BY

JAMES BREDIN

Appointees from a very secret list up there near the gods,

Dressed like Santa Clause or bishops, they got the official jobs,

The Canadian Supreme Court can deny you death with dignity,

Though if you are in great pain; this could be a great indignity.

We don’t know these judges, where they came from or who they are,

They allowed the Vancouver Insite drug-addict clinic bizarre,

They refused Sue Rodriguez death with dignity although in pain,

She had Lou Gehrig’s disease, which is far too dreadful to explain.

Can all this Canadian stuff be swept under the rug?

Or are we all on some very cheap hallucinogenic drug?

If we had binding referendums, we could change things around,

If we could change Trudeau’s Charter, we could not be nailed down.

Your MPs or media moguls don’t answer questions like this,

Never mention the binding referendums held by the Swiss,

What are our chances of getting that pipeline to the West Coast?

If the Supreme Court could decide; would we hide or boast?

TIME TO TURN ABOUT AUG 2ND 2012

TIME TO TURN ABOUT Aug 2^nd 2012

By

James  Bredin

It seems as though we are standing in history watching it go by,

And our Ottawa politicians think they are up in the sky,

With no binding referendums or death with dignity,

Can’t put a pipe across a mountain and other indignities

And nothing political can change as everything stays the same,

As the Parole Board lets them back on the street and no one’s to blame,

No set-date elections or proportional equalization,

And less than half of us vote just to show our elation.

And without referendums, we have little or no control,

As Ottawa appointees take the death-without-dignity toll,

We need someone, somewhere, somehow to stand up and shout,

Put a notice on the cathedral door what this is all about.

Can’t Go Over the Mountain Aug 2^nd, 2012

By

James Bredin

We need to put a pipe across a mountain but they say “No!”

You can’t do it unless you pay us lots and lots of dough,

Because out here, we are far more important than you and you!

This may be a form of extortion but there’s nothing you can do.

Some pipsqueak politician wants to stop our oil pipeline,

Could these pipsqueak types put the whole country into decline?

Do we have someone who could tell them, go jump in the lake?

Are our national politicians in Ottawa, asleep or awake?

Or are they looking up Trudeau’s Charter to see if it’s written there?

Or maybe a minister, a priest or a bishop to help with some prayer?

All we need is one politician with guts to tell them where to go,

Are you there Stephen or is this, all some sort of game show?
