In Pierre Elliott Trudeau, Canada has at last produced a political leader worthy of assassination.

A Tribute To Canada Revised
Canada is home to the Roccky Mountains
Canada is home to the golden mine
Canada is home to the Fishery in dustries
Canada is home to the oil industries
Canada is a land that was made for the refues from all over the world
That came here to start a new lives also
Canada is multicultural
Canada stand strong and free
Canada is my home also and I am proud also to call Canada my home
Canada is home to thte seaguls and the robyns
Canada is home to the foxes
Canada is home to the wild bears
Canada is home to the deers

A Result Of Trudeau's Charter
A graphic result since Pierre Trudeau wrote his Charter,
Terrorists going to the Supreme Court claim they could be martyrs,
And refugees approaching by the shiploads being escorted in,
Certain socialist citizens always look at this as win win.
Media moguls cannot find fault with our constitution,
Written for “EVERYONE” in the world for distribution,
Canada’s future may have been dropped in a baby-death bag,
Charter-result decision abortion clinic with no name tag.
How dare you even suggest that something might be wrong,
Don’t you realize the huge politically correct throng?
Those unborn babies at the abortion clinic are not alive,
But why were they made dead before they even arrived?
And there’s much worse than that because there’s nothing we can do,
Captured by Trudeau’s Charter events and stuck down like glue,
Even the religious crowd seldom speak on this matter,
As though it was forbidden and had to avoid the splatter.

A Canadian Tea Party
We need control of our Ottawa politicians somehow,
Maybe a tea party or something that we ourselves allow,
We need binding referendums soon but how do we get them?
Trudeau’s Charter didn’t help and the media will condemn.
We need political recall of useless politicians,
I realize that this is contrary to elitist traditions,
We need compulsory voting to get us all out to vote,
They will delay everything and say that they’ll take a note.
And make Trudeau’s Charter of Rights for Canadians alone,
Not for all refugees in the world from every combat zone,
We need set-date elections for sure every four or five years,
Not when they feel inclined because of political party fears.

A political leader must keep looking over his shoulder all the time to see if the boys are still there. If they aren't still there, he's no longer a political leader.

How Unıted Are We?
If Switzerland can have binding referendums, why can’t we?
They also have death with dignity, which we’re not allowed to see,
Is it our politicians or our Supreme Court that says no?
Is it expected that we will forever shut up and kowtow?
How do we get this on their pompous political agenda?
Are they busy taxing and spending on their hacienda?
How do we get them to listen to our problems and pay attention?
As they assume that in Canada there can be no tension.
Have I got your attention or should I apologize?
There’s no need to go home and think about this and agonize,
We just need to change our constitution but I forgot,
That’s almost impossible in Trudeau’s constitutional knot.

How Powerful Are They...
Can an appointed judge dismiss an elected mayor?
Is this democracy when the elites are such a powerful players?
Are we allowed to ask these questions or even think about this?
Is there something wrong here, that Mayor Ford can be dismissed?
Appointees and aristocrats always think that they are right,
We have Trudeau's Charter and have been told that we are quite bright,
Though we don't have referendums or set-date elections,
And we never change Trudeau's Charter or make corrections.
The elites know who they are, where they are and who you are,
So their unquestionable conduct may seem quite bizarre,
There's nothing you can do so you better bow your head,
We're lucky we're in Toronto, Canada or they might behead.
