CANADIAN FEDERAL ELECTION Mar 30th,2011
We are having a federal election at the moment but no one knows why,
Some minor disagreement in Ottawa went up in the sky,
Though they are all adamant that something needs to be done,
And each claims that they should be the one that can’t be outdone.
Proportional representation is never even mentioned out loud,
Like binding referendums, it’s all wrapped in a political cloud,
Death-with-dignity is swept under the political rug,
As each political party tries to look so righteous and smug.
Turn on your TV and listen to them talk about this and that,
Mostly about their controlled scheduled boring campaign chat,
But referendums and death-with-dignity are shut out,
Those subjects are forbidden so they refuse to talk about.
