Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's August seventeen, twenty-twenty-six
The Canada Gazette dropping brand new picks
Part One came out August fifteenth, volume one-sixty
Number thirty-three, and the details get tricky
Four commissions posted notices this week
Canada Border Services, listen when they speak
They're watching what crosses the ports and the gates
Regulating movement between the provinces and states

[Chorus]
The Canada Gazette, it's the government's page
Where the rules get published, official and arranged
Part One, Part Two, they document the law
Every notice, every order, everything you saw
The Gazette is the record, the ledger, the proof
Bureaucratic gospel, and it's telling you the truth

[Verse 2]
Canadian International Trade Tribunal's there
Settling disputes about commerce and trade fair
They adjudicate — that's the rare word for today
To formally judge and officially weigh
When businesses argue over tariffs and fees
The Tribunal deliberates with impartial expertise
CRTC posted notices too, keeping broadcast in check
Radio, television, telecommunications — all on deck

[Chorus]
The Canada Gazette, it's the government's page
Where the rules get published, official and arranged
Part One, Part Two, they document the law
Every notice, every order, everything you saw
The Gazette is the record, the ledger, the proof
Bureaucratic gospel, and it's telling you the truth

[Bridge]
Up in Yukon territory, the Assessment Board convened
Socio-economic questions, environmental screened
Before a project breaks the northern permafrost ground
The Board examines every ripple, every pound
Part Two arrived August twelfth, volume one-fifty-nine
Number sixteen stamped and published right on time
Two separate volumes, two different kinds of law
Part One proposes, Part Two finalizes what you saw

[Verse 3]
So every single week the Gazette turns its page
Four agencies this issue stepping onto the stage
Border Services guarding what flows in and out
Trade Tribunal judging what commerce is about
CRTC keeping signals properly assigned
The Yukon Board protecting northern land and mind
These aren't just documents collecting government dust
They're the living architecture of the public trust

[Verse 4]
Published in both languages, English and French
Every bilingual word fills the official bench
From coast to coast to coast the notices apply
No regulation hidden, everything in plain sight
Citizens can comment in the public review stage
Democracy in print across the Gazette's page
Transparency written into every posted line
The government accountable by its own design

[Outro]
Canada Gazette, August seventeen
The most official publication you have ever seen
Volume numbers, issue numbers, dates precisely placed
Every regulation formally and carefully traced
Check the Gazette, that's where the real changes land
The country writes its rules and puts them in your hand
