Canadian Censorship June 27th,2012

CANADIAN CENSORSHIP June 27th,2012
BY
JAMES BREDIN

I feel sorry for the great Ezra Levant but what can I do?
A group of agitators want to close him down, so what's new?
They called in the Canadian Broadcasting Standards Council, some time ago,
They want the government to close down his great TV show.

Because he used some words in Spanish for added Latin flair,
That was enough for them to call the censor to get him off the air,
They also want the Internet controlled by CRTC soon,
The upcoming inquisition will be a great left-wing boom.

Eventually I'll Die Aug 21st,2012

EVENTUALLY I'LL DIE Aug 21st,2012
BY
JAMES BREDIN

Sometime, somehow, someplace, I am eventually going to die,
Fortunately or unfortunately, I still don't know why,
Eventually I'd like to arrange the time and place and die,
Have good family and friends around and arrange to say goodbye.

But right now, death with dignity is against all our laws,
They did it to Sue Rodriguez to activists' applause,
After they allowed abortions, so politically correct,
Killing thousands of unborn babies but they claim they're perfect.

Are They Right?

Their newspaper articles sometimes fill at least a page or two,
It’s like something that started very small and grew and grew,
Their agenda to help drug addicts with illegal drugs is strange,
They want to expand out of Vancouver, at present their home range.

From the number of positive studies they quote, we should be involved,
Because the number of drug-addicts is increasing and could be solved,
Their free injection sites are supervised by their medical friends,
And if we don’t get involved, we could miss out on the social trends.

Their newspaper articles fill pages with their propaganda,
Many strange left-wing activists are locked to their agenda,
Am I missing something here as they say that other studies are wrong?
Should I just shut up and believe the propaganda of this throng?

The UN has lost it Oct 3rd,2012

The UN has lost it Oct 3rd,2012
By
James Bredin

If we pulled out of the UN; who would care and who would know?
Most of the time, it appears to be no more than a game show,
Where despot dictators can put on an international display,
And pretend that they are the good guys that we should never betray.

They refused to let us into on their Security Council crowd,
Did this decision make them feel better and much more proud?
I realize all politicians want a UN appointment there,
Another reason to get away from the whole UN affair.

Wecan't Ask Why Nov 10th,2012

WE CAN'T ASK WHY? NOV 10TH,2012
BY
JAMES BREDIN

If we eventually get death with dignity; what will be their rules?
What would we have to prove to show we're not complete fools?
Would we have to prove we had some horrible disease?
Would we have to get down on our knees and say please?

Death with dignity should be a free choice as a good way to go,
Better than our present system and how we die; we don't know,
Because religious types and Ottawa aristocrats rule the day,
They refuse to adapt to reality and this is not child's play.

When Will I Die?

When Will You and I Die? July 9th,2012
By
James Bredin

I am concerned about the schedule of my upcoming death,
What day, what week, what month, what year, will I take my last breath?
And poor Sue Rodriguez; how she was treated before she died,
Our government did nothing as if they couldn't decide.

It's was a graphic demonstration of our attitude to death,
As if death can be avoided and all we have to do is forget,
Therefore something is wrong that our leadership should put right,
Or maybe someone in Ottawa should just turn on the light.

Youth Criminal Justice Act

YOUTH CRIMINAL JUSTICE ACT July 28th 2011
By

James Bredin

The names of young criminals can't be published so we don't know,
In any ordinary neighborhood this could be quite a blow,
But politicians thought the Youth Criminal Justice Act was great,
Lots of politically correct ideas and not much public debate.



A symptom of the influence of our aristocrats at the time,
Add that to the already soft court system, easy on crime,
Then appointed Santa Clause Supreme Court that banned euthanasia,
Indeed Canadians seem to suffer judicial amnesia.



Pompous politically correct activists with statistics,

Learn Chinese July 11th,2012

LEARN CHINESE July 11th,2012
By
James Bredin

If it was Gaelic they were speaking I might catch a word or two,
But Toronto has turned Chinese and I don't have a clue,
So I think I should learn Mandarin and then we can get along,
I don't know; but is that the language they speak in Hong Kong?




I just looked it up on the Internet and found out to my surprise,
They have more than a hundred languages so I can't improvise,
Has an English-speaking Canadian ever learned Chinese?
Which is easier to learn - Mandarin or Cantonese?

Pauline And Dwd Oct 13th,2012

Pauline and DWD Oct 13th,2012

By
James Bredin

Pauline Marois, premier of Quebec, wants death with dignity,
But she has a minority government, so can't get too finicky yet,
Did our Supreme Court made it national, with Sue Rodriguez decision?
Are Ottawa aristocrats looking at this with much precision?

Despite this; Pauline Marois is our kind of political lady,
She's up front with her ideas and not one bit shady,
And if she gets death with dignity for Quebec; that would be great,
Though she only speaks French and I can't understand the debate.

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?
