44RZ2: The Once More Unto the Breach Amendment
WHEREAS this body has many times in the past tried and failed on its own fool's errand to convert the Pengöpäts Antarctic Territory to a full province, and
WHEREAS we haven't made the doomed attempt to do so in quite a while now, and
WHEREAS maybe going about it by appealing to the power-hunger that is sure to exist in any and every legislator will give the effort a better chance of success, and
WHEREAS according to Article XVII, Section 4 of the Organic Law, "Pengöpäts Antarctic Territory forms an exception" to the rule that Talossan territories are subject to the laws of the Ziu, and
WHEREAS the chance to declare all those lawless penguins under the legal thumb of the Ziu and all its draconian statutes must certainly be an attractive prospect to all those called upon to consider this bill, now
THEREFORE the Ziu of the Kingdom of Talossa hereby submits to the people of Talossa for ratification the following resolutions to amend Organic Law, thus to give effect to this blatant power grab by its Parliament.
RESOLVED that the second sentence of Article XVII, Section 4 of Organic Law be stricken, removing the exception for Pengöpäts Antarctic Territory.
RESOLVED that Section 11 of Article XVII of the Organic Law (concerning the administration of the Territory of Pengöpäts) be repealed.
RESOLVED that Article IV, Section 3 of Organic Law (concerning the election of Senators) be amended, so that the word Pengöpäts is inserted after the name of the province of Maritiimi-Maxhestic.
ADDITIONALLY, the Ziu recommends to His Majesty the King that:
Should the amendments above be ratified by the people and promulgated by the Crown, the Royal Governor of Pengöpäts be made Cunstaval of the new Province of Pengöpäts. The said Cunstaval be instructed to promptly comply with existing provisions of Organic Law to appoint a Senator for this new Province, so that the province shall have a Senator seated during the following Clark. The said Cunstaval be advised and instructed to declare the song "Antarctica" to be the official anthem of the new Province of Pengöpäts, mostly because it's a cool (if not outright cold) song by a band composed of men who stubbornly refused to wear hats to school even in the freezing winters of the Great White North, because doing so would ruin their 1970's disco do's.
FURTHERMORE the Ziu hereby modifies the provisions of The People to Provinces (No More Microprovinces) Act (34RZ9) as follows:
The words "the nation of Canada", "Alaska", and "Iceland" shall be stricken from clauses 6, 10, and 12 of this act respectively, concerning the assignment of immigrants to the Province of Atatürk, Florencia, and Cézembre, and that in clause 12, the word "Russia" be replaced by "Russia except for Siberia". The following clause is added to this act: Talossan citizens living in the following areas shall be assigned to Pengöpäts: Canada, Alaska, Iceland, Siberia, and Antarctica. The restriction against assignments of citizens to the Territory of Pengöpäts made in clause 13 of this act shall be stricken or deemed not to pertain to the Province of Pengöpäts. The province of Pengöpäts is introduced into clause 13b (concerning the assignment of citizens to provinces other than closed provinces) after the province of Florencia.
