statues desecrated tumbling
removed stored dissembled
bridges roads buildings renamed
schools rededicated
history texts revised redacted
artwork covered hidden
currency with your image shunned
the name Macdonald forever cursed
now we see you for what you were
not the man who envisioned Canada
not the man who cajoled political leaders
finally winning them in Charlottetown
but the dissolute drunkard who pushed
a railroad from sea to sea
a corrupt politician who legislated
against the Chinese
against the Blacks from the South
against Riel and for forced assimilation
of the native peoples
and had we at this time a Governor General
we would revoke your knighthood
demand apology from the dead Queen
and all of our forefathers who
supported you and your heinous behaviour
Good-bye and farewell from our history sir
