Can Canadians Do It Oct 25th,2012
CAN CANADIANS DO IT? Oct 25th,2012
BY
JAMES BREDIN
Where do we get politicians with their feet on the ground?
Who think Canadian and are not completely party bound.
Who think death with dignity and not the abortion clinic,
Politicians we can believe in and is not the usual cynic.
Because they're into human rights and Trudeau's constitution,
And no capital punishment, lethal-injection or execution,
Soft judges and parole boards that almost empty the jails,
Or any left-wing ideas, notions or rules that prevail.
And then it gets worse because media moguls think it's great,
Or a new drug-addict Insite free clinic without much debate,
Where judges are appointed from very secret lists,
Governor generals too so our new aristocrats persist.

WHO CAN WE BELIEVE? Aug 25th,2012

Where do we get politicians with their feet on the ground?
Who think Canadian rather than being completely party bound.
Who think about death with dignity and not the abortion clinics,
Politicians we can believe, who are not announcing party lyrics.
Politicians not into human rights and Trudeau's constitution,
With the hidden equalization Canadian solution,
Soft judges and parole boards who try to empty the jails,
Set vicious criminals free and don't give us much or many details.
And then it gets worse because media moguls think it's great,
Or the next drug-addict Insite free clinic without much debate,
Where judges and governor-generals come from secret lists,
Banned referendums for us as they blatantly persist.

Two Subjects Not Discussed Oct 20th,2012
TWO SUBJECTS NOT DISCUSSED Oct 20th,2012
By
James Bredin
There are two subjects our politicians will not discuss,
Death with Dignity and abortions and to hell with us,
Of course media moguls are in on this conspiracy too,
And unfortunately, you think that this has nothing to do with you.
Unborn Canadians killed at abortion holocaust centers,
Death by holocaust abortion so strong that you can't be a dissenter,
But dying with dignity is considered a criminal offence,
This combination can only mean; we have no common sense.
But then it gets worse because no one has an answer for this,
Because they believe in abortions and nothing is amiss,
We have to leave this to the politicians, judges and appointed,
Don't dare show your hurt feelings if you are disappointed.

INJECTION SITES May 14th,2011
Are they building an injection site on your street near your home?
Beside the abortion clinic and you’re not allowed to groan,
And the nice people coming and going will be very discreet,
And you thought that your home would be a quiet retreat.
An appointed Supreme Court decision for the abortion clinic,
They can have them anywhere and you can’t be a cynic,
Although the injection site may attract lots of drug-addict types,
Because free injection sites is what these drug addicts like.
Politicians seem to be going along for some strange reason,
No one can say that this might be a problem or treason,
Because access to this type of information is very tight,
The left wing activists love it and think that they are right.

Sue Rodriguez Forgotten Case Nov 3rd,2012
Sue Rodriguez Forgotten Case Nov 3rd,2012
By
James Bredin
The Sue Rodriguez case, seems to have been long forgotten,
Media moguls and politicians seem to think it was rotten,
She tried to get death with dignity but they refused,
Though appointed judges and politicians did not seem amused.
Because we the people are not allowed government control,
Few set-date elections, referendums or plebiscites on the whole,
No Senate or compulsory votes where death with dignity is banned,
Various religions and bought-politicians think this is grand.
The States of Oregon and Washington have had it for years,
People go to Switzerland to die and avoid the pain and tears,
While Ottawa politicians and aristocrats hide out up there,
Busy avoiding death with dignity and maybe saying a prayer.

Death May Not Be Allowed Sept 22nd,2012
DEATH MAY NOT BE ALLOWED SEPT 22ND,2012
BY
JAMES BREDIN
Our Ottawa aristocrats refuse to give us referendums,
Then add death with dignity hidden in their memorandums,
And obedient media moguls agree with these appointees,
And all this one sided cooperation is completely free.
And worse; our party politicians refuse to see the light,
They have to obey their party program and do it right,
And death with dignity could be a mortal sin or even worse,
Backing it could cut their salaries and the money in their purse.
So Canadians are stuck between a rock and a hard place,
As Ottawa aristocrats look on with a straight face,
Communications is not high on their agenda right now,
And talk about death with dignity is something not allowed.

Can We Be Nailed Down Aug 3rd,2012
Appointees from a very secret list up there near the gods,
Dressed like Santa Clause or bishops, they got the official jobs,
The Canadian Supreme Court can deny you death with dignity,
Though if you are in great pain; this could be a great indignity.
We don't know these judges, where they came from or who they are,
They allowed the Vancouver Insite drug-addict clinic bizarre,
They refused Sue Rodriguez death with dignity although in pain,
She had Lou Gehrig's disease, which is far too dreadful to explain.
Can all this Canadian stuff be swept under the rug?
Or are we all on some very cheap hallucinogenic drug?
If we had binding referendums, we could change things around,
If we could change Trudeau's Charter, we could not be nailed down.
Your MPs or media moguls don't answer questions like this,
Never mention the binding referendums held by the Swiss,
What are our chances of getting that pipeline to the West Coast?
If the Supreme Court could decide; would we hide or boast?

Soft Canadian Justice System
Eligible for parole in three weeks though he got twenty years,
Pre sentence time and enough paper work to bring you to tears,
Between soft appointed judges and the Parole Board; it’s a laugh,
Then add Trudeau’s Charter of Rights and it’s all on his behalf.
Decisions made by the Parole Board and what do you expect?
And the media says very little because it was politically correct,
But there’s something far wrong with this justice system left-wing fling,
And politicians are reluctant to touch it or change a thing.
And most of this goes on, hidden behind locked-tight closed doors,
Only sanctimonious left wing parole boards might know the scores,
No one ever questions or asks, why do we need parole boards?
Is their stuff published or kept secret or do they keep records?

A Sinner... Dec 5th,2012
A SINNER … DEC 5TH,2012
BY
JAMES BREDIN
Why can't we get death-with-dignity from our politicians?
Are they too busy in their high political positions?
Should we even care as we approach the time of our deaths?
And the times when we eventually take our last breathe?
Have the churches pronounced DWD to be a mortal sin?
How can we counteract this so that we can win-win?
Did poor Sue Rodriguez get a slap in the face before she died?
That Insite drug-addict clinic in Vancouver; who did decide?
Why is all this, such an untouchable political affair?
Do the churches have more rights because they say some prayers?
Is it possible that reading these poems could be a sin?
We need binding referendums but where do we begin?

Why Do Less Than Half Of Us Vote? Oct 23rd,2012
WHY DO LESS THAN HALF OF US VOTE? Oct 23rd,2012
BY
JAMES BREDIN
Why do less than half Canadians even bother to vote?
Do our appointed Ottawa aristocrats have us by the throat?
The Supreme Court decides what the government can or cannot do,
Therefore our elected politicians are stymied and don't have a clue.
Why is it that most Canadians don't even know about this?
And no binding referendums or recall like the Swiss,
With abortion clinics everywhere and DWD banned,
Therefore Canadians might tend to have problems in this Promised Land.
Why do our courts announce so many publication bans?
Why does the Youth Criminal Justice Act tend to tie our hands?
And the government denied permission to close the Insite Clinic down,
Why bother to vote if things in Ottawa can't be changed around?

Injectıon Sıtes 9
Rooms full of appointees making life and death decisions,
No binding referendums allowed and no revisions,
Abortion clinics on every street next to the injection sites,
While the activists claim that the drug addicts have Charter rights.
They tried to do the same thing in Europe and were completely banned,
Unfortunately Canadians don’t seem able to take a stand,
We seem to have lost control of these drug-addict injection sites,
Has some politician up in Ottawa turned out the lights?
This issue seems to have faded from the pages of the media,
Maybe they’re busy reading a left-wing encyclopedia,
Have we all gong mad as this is taking place right up front,
Where are our oddball Canadian politicians who should confront?

Euthanasa Maybe ... Nov 25th,2012
EUTHANASIA MAYBE … NOV 25TH,2012
BY
JAMES BREDIN
It's difficult for Canadians to make euthanasia legal,
In fact, it's likely that this issue could be considered evil,
Because organized religious groups are all opposed,
Therefore their anti-euthanasia ideas are imposed.
Without binding referendums or compulsory votes; it's sad,
Without proportional representation; it's as though we've been had,
But no one will discuss this problem, as though it's a sin
Canadians have gone to Switzerland in order to win.
Political, bureaucrat and legal aristocrats can't be touched,
Nor can they recognize that they may have truly botched,
Because Canadians need death with dignity and soon,
It happened to Sue Rodriguez with a disease so no one's immune.

GET RID OF PAROLE BOARDS Apr 14th,2011
What can we do about soft Parole Boards, please tell me now,
How do we shut them all down; please tell me or write me how,
Who are these political appointees with no known names?
Who said we needed them or are they all playing some games?
No capital punishment ‘cause it’s not politically correct,
And these soft Parole Boards have an even worse effect,
And convicts can get free by appealing to these Parole Boards,
As if they had done something good and needed an award.
Do we have to obey these appointed aristocrats?
Could our system of government be called democrat?
Has anyone ever complained about killers being set free?
Are our politicians and trustees forever absentees?

Party Bound Politicians July 4th,2012
PARTY BOUND POLITICIANS July 4th,2012
By
James Bredin
Our Canadian politicians are reluctant to change,
If they do they will be immediately told that this is strange,
They are party politicians and not allowed an independent thought,
They have to follow the party line and not be distraught.
Canada should have a system where they have some independence,
And not march in step, completely party bound in their dependence,
We should have proportional representation for those who should vote,
And compulsory votes or added tax so all constituents take note.
Party politics is in many ways like a religious belief,
Those who change are treated as sacrilegious with great grief,
Those who want death with dignity are looked at as pagans or worse,
Supreme Court decisions here will not allow for anything diverse.

NO NEED TO VOTE Apr 28th,2011
We are satisfied because there’s no need to vote or be involved,
Our politicians will go to Ottawa where it’s all solved,
No need to change or have recall because everything is right,
Though elected Senate and set-date elections would be a delight.
Party politicians don’t need to think as they follow along,
They say binding referendums and death with dignity are wrong,
Compulsory voting for Canadians will not be discussed,
Capital punishment is only mentioned in utter disgust.
What you need on your street is two or three abortion clinics,
Next to the supervised injection site but I’m being a cynic,
The dog is barking and many of us have already left town,
The remainders of us are caught in traffic looking around.

Doomd Canadian Democracy Aug 11th,2012
DOOMED CANADIAN DEMOCRACY Aug 11th,2012
BY
JAMES BREDIN
Democracy depends on elections to make it work,
Elections depend on participation - not a few dorks,
Established politicians depend on their party to get them there,
Reason why less than half Canadians get involved in this affair.
So there's something wrong and we should sit down and figure out,
Maybe mandatory voting would establish some clout,
Maybe voting for senators and High Court judges would help,
But would appointees to the courts and Parole Boards scream and yelp?
Because Parole Boards tend to let many criminals out of jail,
Maybe murderers, rapists or those who couldn't make bail,
Turning our already soft justice system into complete junk,
While our so-called Charter democracy smells like a skunk.

We Need Change Feb 15th 2011
Media moguls manage the news so Canadians don’t know,
That binding referendums should be vital for us to go,
And get control of our politicians so reluctant to change,
Who tax and spend and travel and talk and never rearrange.
And Trudeau’s Charter written for “EVERYONE” on earth should change,
Human rights types and their lawyers lined up and no one thinks its strange,
While we are banned from the Security Countil at the UN,
What’s next and when will they do it to us again and again?
If we can kill babies daily at every abortion clinic,
But banned from assisted suicide by some Supreme Court cynic,
Sue Rodriguez did it the properly and way out of our view,
She died but no one knew how or who or where or what she used.

Don't You Dare Complain June 30th,2012
DON'T YOU DARE COMPLAIN
By
James Bredin
We don't have set-date elections and no one complains out loud,
We don't have death with dignity and churchgoers feel proud,
We have Trudeau's Charter of Rights for "EVERYONE" on the globe,
And "EVERYONE" is claiming their rights as legal-aid lawyers probe.
We don't have compulsory voting so less than half of us vote,
Politicians seem to love this as they go to Ottawa and gloat,
High Court guys/girls are appointed from a very secret list,
They must be aristocrats because you and I can't enlist.
We have parole boards that let too many criminals out of jail,
Don't bother to enquire why or even send an e-mail,
We don't have proportional representation so don't ask,
Is that someone on bail I see, with a gun, wearing a mask?

CANADIAN SUPREME COURT Aug 24th,2012
By
James Bredin
Appointees from a very secret list who are up there near the gods,
Dressed like Santa Clause or bishops - they got the official nods,
The Canadian Supreme Court hangs out in big fancy places,
They are very important so you better recognize their faces.
They allowed a drug-addict Insite clinic in Vancouver town,
Despite the Federal Government's attempts to close it down,
Who runs this country - the government or the Supreme Court?
Elected politicians or appointees - who should we support?
They told very sick, facing death, Sue Rodriguez, where to go,
She had Lou Gehrig's disease and wanted to die; they said no,
And we can't change or even elect our prime minister by name,
And Quebec may have a referendum so we all should have the same.
We all need binding referendums and death with dignity soon,
Could the Supreme Court help us here - get out of our cocoon?
There's no doubt that a Quebec referendum could bring big change,
Maybe this could be a good thing if Stephen Harper could arrange.

Stuff We Can't Have
Canadian binding referendums are completely forbidden,
Our pompous politicians don't want to be overridden,
Just like death-with-dignity; we're going nowhere soon,
Politicians are too busy in their private party commune.
We never have a plebiscite and can't have propositions,
Our politicians are busy on various appointed commissions,
No proportional representation or compulsory voting for all,
And secret-list appointees will make the death-with-dignity call.
Appointed senators fill the Senate but none were elected,
Can't point the finger because this system is protected,
And Trudeau wrote the Charter for EVERYONE everywhere,
His son Justin now wants to lead the Liberals and compare.

Stupid Questions... Nov 17th,2012
STUPID QUESTIONS… NOV 17TH,2012
BY
JAMES BREDIN
How many babies were killed at the abortion clinics today?
Not a nice question, I know; so please go and stay away,
How many drug-addict injection sites will they allow?
Have we all gone completely nuts, here and now and how?
Will they ever allow assisted suicide or should I ask?
Is this a mortal sin and therefore maybe I should wear a mask,
If we could get binding referendums; would we change?
How do we arrange that or how do we rearrange?
Whether we like it or not; we will all eventually die,
So dying with dignity could, in some sick cases, apply,
Are our politicians so dumb that they don't know this?
Or have they turned into do-nothing Liberals and remiss?
