WHY THE OPPOSITION? ... MAY 7TH, 2013

WHY THE OPPOSITION?  ... MAY 7TH, 2013

BY

JAMES BREDIN

Why is there so much opposition to assisted suicide?

Have they announced that only they are right and can decide?

Because democracy doesn’t count when it comes to your death,

Because, though they don’t say; it’s a religious issue, you can bet.

Why do some countries and states allow it but we don’t?

Though not in Canada but maybe soon in the State of Vermont,

And also; the States of Oregon and Washington have it now,

Though here, still; it is causing one terrible religious row.

Is there a chance that it could become a provincial cause?

But we have no leadership there, for no reason -- just because,

And as you get older and sicker, you might think about this,

Sue Rodriguez did and they didn’t even mention the Swiss.

A SUBJECT NEVER DISCUSSED ... MAY 6TH, 2013

A SUBJECT NEVER DISCUSSED … MAY 6^TH, 2013

BY

JAMES BREDIN

This is one subject that is seldom if ever discussed,

Priests and ministers and bishops get to show their disgust,

Death-with-dignity is not tolerated from a pulpit sermon,

Nor is it tolerated in the Ottawa establishment version.

Why are terribly sick humans denied a dignified death?

Sick with Alzheimer’s disease, look like taking their last breath,

Others with chronic degenerative diseases that defy,

Lou Gehrig’s disease as Sue Rodriguez had to suffer and die.

Dogs and cats are put down when the time is right and sickness bad,

The Society for the prevention of cruelty helps though this is sad,

But our government is set in their ways, so we have to suffer,

No death-with-dignity allowed for you or any sick old duffer.

DEATH WITH HUMAN RIGHTS .... MAY 5TH, 2013

DEATH WITH HUMAN RIGHTS … MAY 5^TH, 2013

BY

JAMES BREDIN

And death-with-dignity should be part of our human rights,

But we have those with hidden agendas willing to put up a fight,

The issue is secret and cannot be mentioned or discussed,

They can do this because they belong to Ottawa upper crust.

And who allowed you to bring death-with-dignity to light?

You should change your ways and be more obedient and polite,

Death-with-dignity was never mentioned in Trudeau’s Charter,

You can go to Switzerland if you want to be a martyr.

And our Constitution cannot be amended so there!

It’s obvious you should go to church and say a prayer,

It’s obvious too; you don’t have a clue what you are talking about,

Talk to your Ottawa politician if you have a doubt.

DWD never happened in Canada ... May 4th, 2013

DWD never happened in Canada  …  MAY 4^TH, 2013

By

Canadians, like the Sue Rodriguez case; have been refused point blank,

It’s the political elusive way; though they pretend to be quite frank,

Never discussed, never mentioned, because they’ve all been told,

The death-with-dignity issue, is probably sinful and far too bold.

Party loyalty is more important than assisted suicide,

Canadians are not allowed to think so they have to abide,

Only the Ottawa establishment is allowed to decide,

And death-with-dignity is not one of the programs, they will provide.

Add to that the fact that only half the Canadians vote,

And party politicians love it though they should feel remote,

The political party – not the people – is what it’s all about,

So it’s not what the people want – it’s who has the clout.

Canadians, like the Sue Rodriguez case; have been refused point blank,

It’s the government political elusive way of being quite frank,

Never discussed, never mentioned, because we’ve all been told,

The death-with-dignity issue, is definitely illegal and far too bold.

Party loyalty is more important than assisted suicide,

Canadians are not allowed to think this through and have to abide,

Only the Ottawa establishment is allowed to decide,

And death-with-dignity is not one of the programs, they will provide.

Though we have a Charter of Rights for EVERYONE in the world,

And they’re all coming here even those from the underworld,

Ottawa establishment can’t admit that there might be a mistake,

And death-with-dignity is something they will not allow or partake.

ONLY HALF CANADIANS VOTE ... MAY 2ND, 2013

ONLY HALF CANADIANS VOTE … MAY 2^ND 2013

How do we get better politicians than those we have now?

Some guys/girls who will give us death-with-dignity somehow,

Their political party doesn’t matter if they see the light,

And death-with-dignity doesn’t give them a political fright.

Why is this so difficult to get through to our politicians?

And their Supreme Court appointees who have their own conditions,

Switzerland, Oregon and Washington figured this problem out,

Some places seem to know what death-with-dignity is about.

Canadians have been told that this is of no great concern,

And we can’t go there because it’s a point of no return,

And if we don’t like the way it is, we don’t have to vote.

And without proportional representation; they have us by the throat.

OLD PEOPLE DYING ... MAY 1ST, 2013

OLD PEOPLE DYING… May 1^st, 2013

By

James Bredin

Old people thinking of dying don’t normally make a fuss,

Many of them standing by the roadside just waiting for a bus,

Busy Politicians don’t see them as they quickly drive by,

But those with a terminal illness should be allowed a suicide.

Justin’s team could be a shoo in, if he has the guts,

If he would back assisted suicide; no ifs ands or buts,

Unfortunately he is part of the establishment so no way,

Euthanasia is also banned by them by night and by day.

And it doesn’t matter who or what you say or do; they will not change,

You may have to go to Switzerland for your death to be arranged,

Why can’t we change things to help each other with assisted suicide?

Why must the issue of death-with-dignity have to collide?
