The Alberta Gerrymandering Song

The map it looked neat ’til the UCP said That they want to make sure that they’ll stay here instead! So, they’ll draw new lines that will change things forever, And if we don’t fight it, Democracy’s dead!   They’ll make pizza slices Around all our cities To make sure that rural votes water them down. Some places are split up, cos they might just vote wrong, That’s how gerrymanders ensure they stay in.   So, raise up your voices, for we must all fight this, For when it was tested in court voters won! We can’t let them make lines just anywhere they want, For rural and urban are just not the same.   They’ll make pizza slices Around all our cities To make sure that rural votes water them down. Some places are split up, cos they might just vote wrong, That’s how gerrymanders ensure they stay in.
