We welcome the ceasefire, but the US "peace" plan is a further denial of self-determination.

It is time Ottawa sided with justice and backed a real, lasting peace for Palestine by putting real pressure on Israel through concrete action.

Le gouvernement est en train d’inventer une crise pour privatiser Postes Canada, briser le STTP
et mettre fin à la livraison à domicile. C’est une attaque contre des milliers d’emplois et un service public essentiel.

The government is fabricating a crisis to privatize Canada Post, break the union and end door-to-door delivery. This is an attack on thousands of jobs & a vital public service.

90 seconds to midnight. The "Golden Dome" is a first-strike weapon. Canada's war spending is skyrocketing. On UN Day for Total Elimination of Nuclear Weapons, we must act.

Ratify the nuke ban treaty and get out of NATO!

With reservation, the Communist Party welcomes the announcement of the recognition of the State of Palestine by Canada.

This is the recognition of a state without guaranteeing its right to self-determination.

90 secondes avant minuit. Le « Dôme doré » est une arme de première frappe. Les dépenses militaires du Canada décrochent la lune. En cette Journée de l'ONU pour l'élimination totale des armes nucléaires, nous devons agir.

Le PCC accueille avec réserve l’annonce de la reconnaissance de l’État de Palestine par le Canada. C’est une reconnaissance d’un État sans lui garantir son droit à l’autodétermination.

The Carney gov't is slashing social programs to fund a $150B military expansion, cutting taxes & regulation for monopolies, & breaking strikes.

We must build independent labour action to fight for peace, sovereignty, & better work & wages. 🔗https://tinyurl.com/yrzsha59

US tariffs are a direct attack on auto & steel jobs. The goal is to eliminate the industry in Canada. But Ottawa's response, begging US monopolies & militarizing our economy, sells out workers.

It's time to defend sovereignty, roll back corporate power, & create jobs.

Air Canada flight attendants defied government strike breaking & won!
This proves worker militancy & labour unity works. But the bigger fight to protect the right to strike & repeal Section 107 continues!

Full solidarity with CUPE flight attendants!

AirCanada must pay for ALL hours worked, negotiate fairly and it should be re-nationalized!

The gov’t’s repeated use of Section 107 is an attack on the right to strike & an attack on all workers. Unite & fight!

This Pride, reclaim militant struggle!

The far-right in Canada is banning gender-affirming care, forcibly outing trans youth, & censoring schools to privatize education.

Capitalism fuels this bigotry to divide us.

Ça n’a RIEN à voir avec la souveraineté, la défense ou la paix. C’est tout le contraire.

Réarmer le Canada = payer un « pizzo » au « parrain » de l’OTAN : les États-Unis.

Le Canada prévoit hausser les dépenses militaires à 2% du PIB d’ici 2026, puis à 5% d’ici 2035 – un niveau jamais vu depuis la 2ᵉ Guerre mondiale.

This is not about Canadian sovereignty, defence or peace. It's the opposite.

Canada plans to hike military spending to 2% of GDP by 2026 & 5% by 2035 – the highest since WWII. This wastes $150 BILLION/year that could fund housing, schools, hospitals & jobs.
