If the government has the power but do it; do they have the guts? <br />They want to tinker with the appointed Senate; no ifs, no ands, no buts, <br />Term limits might help or even Senate elections, <br />But Quebec government is annoyed about these selections. <br /> <br />Apparently it’s unconstitutional so please stop, <br />While only appointed aristocrats want to decide on the lot, <br />So seven provinces and half the people need to be in too, <br />So please no more aristocrat appointees lined up in a queue. <br /> <br />And our appointed Supreme Court wants in on this; from up high, <br />The same crowd that denied Sue Rodriguez permission to die, <br />Our senators didn’t have to work on a Friday till now, <br />The whole place is upset because of this ongoing row.<br /><br />James Bredin<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/gutless-senate/
