The next Canadian Constitution Mar 2nd, 2012
By
When we write the next constitution, this is what we
need,
Binding referendums and set-date elections every fourth
year,
Constitution only for Canadians in Canada – not
agitators,
Then elect Governor General, Supreme Court and senators.
Canadians have a right to vote but less than half of us
do,
And those who were elected or appointed; only a few knew,
Set-date elections should be part of the electoral scene,
And everyone should have to vote who is over sixteen.
Compulsory voting or a fifty-dollar fine at tax time,
So you get a receipt number to write to avoid a crime,
This is simple stuff so why is it so difficult to
arrange?
The high Ottawa aristocrats want nothing to change.
Cannot arrange when and where to die and I don’t know
why,
Decisions from the Supreme Court up in the Ottawa sky,
But you can kill your unborn baby any day of the week,
We may be completely crazy but why are we also so weak?
