Twenty-two thousand workers in ten CUPE Locals are fighting the Tory government of hard-right Premier Blaine Higgs in New Brunswick.

Arrestations, meurtres, voire pire, à l’égard des communistes et autres forces démocratiques font partie de l’héritage de la soldatesque soudanaise. Il s’agit d’une force héritière de la domination et de l’exploitation du Soudan par l’impérialisme européo-américain.
Arrests, killings, and worse of Sudan’s Communists and democrats are the military’s legacy. They are a force for the continuation of Sudan’s domination and exploitation by the EU and US imperialism. The Sudanese people must be free to determine their own economic and social path forward.
The sudden withdrawal of extradition proceedings against Meng Wanzhou, her release from house arrest in Vancouver, and her subsequent return to her home, family and work in China marks a final end to this embarrassing, unjustified and totally unnecessary episode in Canada-China relations and Canadian foreign policy in general.
