Another Canadian Election Apr 23rd 2011 Poem by James Bredin

We have frequent elections because we can’t get it right,
No set-date or mid-term elections in our constant plight,
No binding referendums allowed or judicial review,
Abortion clinics imposed by appointed Supreme Court crew.

No plebiscites, propositions or proportional representation,
So less than half Canadians vote in political frustration,
No compulsory voting by established Ottawa crowd,
And only their politically correct agenda allowed.

As every writer in this land writes at least a million pages,
About various party agendas and each one rages,
While the real important issues are completely forgotten,
To be avoided like the plague or some disease that’s rotten.
