Le Parti communiste du Canada dénonce la récente visite de la ministre des Affaires étrangères, Mélanie Joly, à Kiev et la perçoit comme une provocation à l’égard de la Fédération de Russie, ainsi qu’une profession de foi en faveur du bellicisme inhérent à l’impérialisme occidental. Par cette visite, elle contribue également à légitimer un régime fascisant dans le but d’escalader de façon dangereuse les tensions entre l’OTAN et la Fédération de Russie.

With only a few weeks before the Feb. 5 opening ceremony of the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games, the attempt by the US and its clique of faithful allies to mount a so-called “diplomatic boycott” has faltered. The Communist Party of Canada condemns this shameful exercise in hypocrisy, which is backed by the federal government and the parties in Parliament. This is the latest indication that support for Washington’s global strategy has become the virtually unquestioned basis of Canada’s foreign policy.

The Communist Party of Canada, with a proud century-long tradition of fighting for democratic rights and the right to employment, denounces the dismissal of a teacher in Chelsea, Outaouais, Quebec, for wearing a headscarf under Bill 21.

Workers have a world to win – and a planet to save!
Speaker after speaker at the COP26 conference in Glasgow pointed to the increasing frequency and severity of the effects of climate change, from droughts to hurricanes to floods to forest fires. These effects are devastating the developing countries of the global south, but they are also wreaking havoc in imperialist countries, as evidenced by the recent mass floods and mudslides in BC.
