Damned Canadian Democracy Sept 17th,2012
Democracy involves elections in case you didn't know,
So appointing unknowns to the Senate is nothing but a floorshow,
And why can't this democratic illusion be altered or changed?
Ask anyone and everyone and it cannot be rearranged.
So Canadians are caught between a rock and a hard place,
And we can't change Trudeau's Charter of Rights or have it displaced,
And then it gets worse because no one seems to know what to do,
We need strong democratic leadership to push our way through.
We need referendums and death with dignity very soon,
To even mention these changes, is considered inopportune,
I can only imagine what separatists say about this,
But I don't understand a word in French so I have to miss.
