With reservation, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Canada welcomes Prime Minister Mark Carney’s announcement that Canada will recognize the State of Palestine. Delivered on July 30, this “commitment” follows those of French President Macron and British Prime Minister Starmer, both chronologically and in terms of content. In all three cases, recognition is…
The Communist Party of Canada issues this urgent warning against the Liberal government’s introduction of Bill C-2, deceitfully named the “Strong Borders Act.” This legislation escalates state surveillance, entrenches xenophobic scapegoating, and deepens Canada’s subordination to the United States government, continuing the authoritarian legacy of Harper’s Bill C-51.

Les besoins du peuple, pas la cupidité des entreprises Après deux ans de négociations, le gouvernement fédéral continue d’offrir des salaires bien en dessous de l’augmentation du cout de la vie. Alors que les prix explosent, les salaires réels et les conditions de vie des travailleur-euses ont considérablement diminué, entraînant un transfert massif de richesse…
The Bank of Canada hiked interest rates to 4.5% in January – the 8th hike in 11 months – even though previous hikes have shown that while the impact on inflation is minimal, the impact on the working class, the young and the poor is devastating.
