Against Criminals
In any case we are not attacking them
at all. We are offering them incalculable benefits.
― T.H. White, The Once and
Future King
They began settling here a long time ago
At first they were welcome, but they developed a ‘tude
We need their charity - they tell us so!
But their intentions are obvious and crude
With insolence, edict, and a heavy political hand
They’ve come to save us from ourselves; that’s what they
say
Here in our beloved Canada, our home and native land –
Oh, won’t the Americans just go away!
