Le Parti communiste du Canada condamne le ministre du Travail, Steven MacKinnon qui, affirmant qu’il y « a une limite à l’autodestruction économique que les Canadiens sont prêts à accepter », impose un retour au travail aux travailleurs portuaires de Montréal et de Colombie-Britannique en conflit avec la partie patronale. Ce faisant, il reprend la formule gagnante du patronat employée en fin d’été pour asséner d’un coup de loi-matraque les cheminots du CP et du CN.

This intervention mirrors the approach used by other employers and government earlier this summer to suppress CP and CN railway workers through legislative force.

The Communist Party of Canada had warned that the worst outcome on Nov. 5 would be a victory for a Republican party bankrolled by the super-wealthy and large corporations, who have taken advantage of the base of far-right, white supremacist, and even fascist forces, including influential Christian nationalists who seek to eliminate all reproductive rights.

But because of its non-binding character, Washington has once again dismissed this significant rebuke by the rest of humanity and vows to keep its asphyxiating blockade and related unilateral coercive measures against Cuba in place.

Dans le contexte des motions de censure conservatrices déposées cet automne au Parlement et des manœuvres opportunistes des autres partis d’opposition, le Parti communiste réaffirme qu’il ne place aucune confiance envers un Parlement dominé par les intérêts des monopoles. Cependant, un gouvernement conservateur ne fera qu’empirer les choses pour les travailleurs.

In the context of this fall’s Conservative non-confidence motions in Parliament and opportunist manoeuvres by the other opposition parties, the Communist Party reiterates that we have no confidence in a Parliament dominated by monopoly corporate interests but we can be confident that a Conservative government will only make things far worse for working people.
