CHANGES ARE INEVITABLE Mar 19th, 2012
BY
Referendums are banned though our politicians would deny,
The people have little or no input and no one knows why,
Therefore we should have binding referendums like the Swiss,
Where the people have influence and it’s not hit or miss.
Therefore we should rewrite the Constitution and get it right,
And tell the entrenched aristocrats to turn on the lights,
Recognize that voting should be an essential thing to do,
With social numbers or an added fine at tax time put through.
The entrenched Ottawa autocrats oppose all Charter change,
Quietly secretly so changes are difficult to arrange,
They have the power and the influence and want to keep it that way,
And no Canadian including you has anything to say.
Change is inevitable like the weather and the tide,
Though aristocrats and bureaucrats deny this and hide,
In a country where binding referendums are forbidden,
And new ideas and poems like this will be hidden.
