Canadian left wing Charter
by
James Bredin
The philosophy of Might Makes Right is an Ottawa thing,
They love to flex their fixation with the far left wing,
They’re going to cure unemployment and give us all jobs,
Jobs, for everyone especially the slobs in the mobs,
And call them all civil servants, hire them by the ton,
Start a program, register guns, and leave nothing undone.
The billion-dollar cost means nothing when you’re right,
They learned it all from Trudeau their bright guiding light,
Who visited the Soviets and then wrote the Charter,
With no property rights and believed he was a martyr,
Got the queen to sign it and started judge-made law,
Judicial dictatorship with a built-in democratic flaw.
Changed laws sixty times with Supreme Court might,
Liberals nodded in unison as though everything was right,
Secretly selected judges, never questioned, appointed for life,
Don’t ever change the Charter no matter how much strife,
With pious propaganda pumped out from their CBC machine,
Claiming right wing conspiracy types are all obscene.
