CAN WE CHANGE?  DEC 18TH, 2014

by

JAMES BREDIN

Compulsory voting by mail or by hand should be  the law,

Proportional representation, set-date elections and recall,

Doctor assisted death made legal by a binding referendum check

Tax-and-spend politicians should be considered grotesque.

All senators elected every five years on another set date,

Party politicians can't ignore the public in their debates,

Trudeau's Charter of Rights up for change every ten years,

If this can come to pass; Canadians will have no fears.

But for some unknown reason, we have to tolerate the here and now

No death with dignity because it might cause a row,

No politician can be recalled, no matter what he has done,

Busy travelling the world and talking on his cell phone.
