Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The Gazette opens wide on August fifteen's page
Volume one-sixty, number thirty-three takes the stage
Part One arrives with commissions lined in rows
Four agencies speaking — here's what each one knows

The Border Services Agency puts its notices through
The Trade Tribunal weighs what international commerce will do
The CRTC watches over radio waves and screens
And the Yukon Assessment Board examines northern scenes

[Chorus]
Canada Gazette, the record of the land
Every rule and notice written out by hand
Part One and Part Two, two volumes running clear
The official register of what governs us here
August sixteen, twenty-twenty-six — read the decree
The Gazette holds what the government wants you to see

[Verse 2]
Then Part Two appears, dated August twelfth's light
Volume one-fifty-nine, number sixteen takes its right
Where regulations finalized become the law of the day
From proposal into practice, that's the Gazette's way

The Canadian Radio-television Commission marks its call
Broadcasting frequencies and telecommunications for all
While the Trade Tribunal arbitrates the cross-border claims
International commerce governed — everyone knows the rules of these games

[Chorus]
Canada Gazette, the record of the land
Every rule and notice written out by hand
Part One and Part Two, two volumes running clear
The official register of what governs us here
August sixteen, twenty-twenty-six — read the decree
The Gazette holds what the government wants you to see

[Verse 3]
The public reads the notices before the ink is dry
A chance to comment, question, push back — ask the reason why
Democracy lives in the details of each page
Where citizens can enter the regulatory stage

From tariff codes to broadcast rights to environmental review
The Gazette carries every order coming into view
No quiet rule escapes the obligation to declare
The government must publish it — the people have to share

[Bridge]
Two separate parts serve two separate purposes well
Part One proposes what the departments have to tell
Part Two confirms the regulations fully made
From the border to the broadcast to the northern watershed

[Outro]
Canada Gazette, August sixteen's edition
Four commissions, two volumes, one mission
The Yukon Board assesses what the northern land will bear
The official record printed — public notice standing there

[Chorus]
Canada Gazette, the record of the land
Every rule and notice written out by hand
Part One and Part Two, two volumes running clear
The official register of what governs us here
August sixteen, twenty-twenty-six — read the decree
The Gazette holds what the government wants you to see
