Military standard white supremacy
Defund the fecund federal steed
The provincial beast, the local breed
Vainglorious North-West Mounted Rifles
Razed the plains, culling all life forms
Hanging bison's heads on badges still today
End the genocidal state's siege
On warriors, women and girls, Black lives
at ease, free, alive and at peace
Disarm
Defund
Declassification
Disband RCMP
Defund the police

February 2020
Liberal MP Wayne Long leads Trudeau

But they came with plans for policing amendments
While Higgs wore a t-shirt
Stating systemic racism should be ended
White heritage is a pathology
In qualified immunity,
Every European bleating
Wields white power freely
In a total secret war

I don’t know its shape
I don’t know how to call it
I don’t know how to keep it
Peace! Agency!

Usse Saint John, New Brunswick
These small plastic puzzles, similar to the gewgaws given away by petroleum and detergent manufacturers, were found over a wide area, as if they had fallen from the sky.
