THEY TELL US WHAT TO THINK ... AUG 28TH, 2014

BY

JAMES BREDIN

Should the lack of referendums matter much to us?

Never mentioned in the media and no one causes a fuss,

Should our politicians discuss doctor assisted death?

Are these subjects forbidden in high places -- you can bet.

How do we go about changing death-with-dignity affairs?

We get the impression that in Ottawa, no one really cares,

Though eventually everyone of us will suffer death,

Sorry to have to tell you this and I know its a little terse,

Someone rewrite the Charter with binding referendums for all,

Get us out of this mess we are in before we have to crawl,

Which politician, which party will come down to the ground on this?

Binding referendums are listed in the Constitution of the Swiss.
