Can We Solve Canadian Problems? Poem by James Bredin

The new generation is very aware of what’s going on,
It’s all on the Internet - not TV or Parliament Hill lawn,
Our politicians refuse to change our system as it stands,
It should stay as it is, they say and in their capable hands.

Canada is an illusion of where “EVERYONE” has rights,
Except the right to die with dignity or the system bites,
Or if you are an unborn baby and would like to stay alive,
The politically correct have it in hand and you may die.

They discuss every problem in the world except what really counts,
Not death with dignity or assisted suicide on no accounts,
Computers can get rid of dictators over in the Middle East,
But no changes in Ottawa, not in the very least.
