I am speaking to you in a moment of grave crisis What has taken place in Montreal in the past two weeks is not unprecedented The Canadians have always a**umed that it could not happen here As a result we are doubly shocked that it has Our a**umption may have been naive but it was understandable Understandable because Democracy flourshies in Canada It has now been demonstrated to us by a few misguided persons Just how fragile a Democratic society can be Democracy is not prepared to defend itself For that reason the government has decided to proclaim the War Measures Act The War Measures Act gives sweeping powers to the government And also suspends the operation of the Canadian Bill of Rights This government is not acting out of fear It is acting to prevent fear from spreading The government is acting therefore to protect your life and your liberty I won't rely on the service of strangers Like other robots in this place Who show their fear at the break of danger In the way they hide their face I won't explain my personal reasons On bended knee to a suspect crown I got my license, it's the hunting season I'm gonna burn this f**er down If you never hear the call to glory And live your life through honor and deed Then every time you look in the mirror You'll see the face of the man that you wish you could be The greatest wisdom that I've ever known Stupid people should not breed Or at least keep to their own Protect us from their pestilent seed Unmoralistic debutantes Spend their lives searching for something With all their needs and all their wants If you ain't got pride, you ain't got nothing I sense the unease which grips many Canadians Some of you are upset and this is understandable I want to rea**ure you that the authorities have the situation well in hand Everything that needs to be done is being done Every level of government in this country is well prepared to act in your interests If you never hear the call to glory And live your life through honor and deed Then every time you look in the mirror You'll see the face of the man that you wish you could be
