• MayDay 2021: We don’t want this world they are trying to sell us!
• Meet up at 4PM at Jarry park, at the corner of Gary-Carter and St-Laurent.

The pandemic we are mired in precarize everyone and highlights serious injustices. The stimulus wished by the leaders is an economic stimulus which is not addressed to us. It is not addressed to the artists and other people who don’t make enough profit to merit the right to exist. It does not concern sex workers, whose existence itself is still criminalized. This stimulus ignores handicapped people, the marginalized, those with mental health issues. The stimulus they talk about, it is for the oil companies, the Bombardier corporations, the party friends like Guzzo, but it is not for us. To let the governments save us from the crisis they created themselves through the constant cuts to healthcare and through their "snowbird" lives, would be to accept death. What we need to stimulate is not the economy, but the struggles for our rights and the end of capitalist exploitation.

Why did we protest again?

May 1st was created out of workers' struggles leaded by immigrants. The struggle took place on this continent more than a hundred years ago. Today, globalized imperialist capitalism created conditions which forces millions of people to leave their home in order to find a refuge to survive. These millions of people are place in situations of extreme vulnerability, creating a stateless and exploitable population. According to an article published in the Devoir today, the risk to suffer from workplace accident causing severe wounds or death is twice as high for foreign workers.

• On Wednesday May 1st, at 6:30pm, in Square Cabot, the anticapitalist caravan is back at it again to say fuck your borders and fuck your prisons!
• Meetup at 6:30 in Cabot square (Atwater metro station).

Now as before, they are rich because we are poor.

The financial masters of the Western world and seven of their political puppets will meet later this year at la Malbaie. They will fight to continue the exploitation of the global South and the pillaging of natural resources. The G7 will be a magnificient circus, paid for by our own exploitation. Paid by those who break themselves at work, by cut to social services, to education, to healthcare, to human dignity. A circus which will encourage free work given by unpaid internship, which will support the staggering profits of real estate moguls forcing us outside our homes. A circus whose sole goal is to promote an immoral statu quo. Imperialism and colonialism will be celebrated, at the expense of those who produce most of the world's wealth. But it is not too late to fight back.

Meet up at Place Pasteur, St-Denis street (between Ste-Catherine and Maisonneuve), on Thursday, August 11th, at 6PM!

Because, for the first time ever, the World Social Forum takes place in North America. This is an historic opportunity to see another side of modern capitalism: instead of seeing the poverty and exploitation of the Southern states, the attendees will be able to observe the wealth and decadence of the North.

Starting points:

• Entrance of McGill University (corner of Sherbrooke and McGill College, McGill metro station)
• Square Phillips (corner of Ste-Catherine and Union, McGill metro station)

THIS YEAR AGAIN, THIS IS A CALL FOR ECONOMIC DISTURBANCE IN DOWNTOWN MONTREAL, NAMED BY THE BOURGEOIS THEMSELVES AS THE NEW "GOLDEN SQUARE MILE", ESPECIALLY THE PERIMETER FORMED BY THE SHERBROOKE, RENÉ-LÉVESQUE, PEEL AND UNION STREETS.

Événement organisé par le parti communiste révolutionnaire et appuyé par la CLAC

May Day 2015 Anti-Capitalist Demonstration

"It's not enough to fight austerity; the real enemy is Capitalism!

Montréal, May 1st, 2015 -- Today the working and oppressed classes of the world took to the streets to celebrate the 125th anniversary of International Worker’s Day.

For the eighth consecutive year, an autonomous demonstration is planned in Montréal to highlight and celebrate the anticapitalist nature of the international May Day tradition.

Depuis de nombreuses années, on nous dit qu’il faut se serrer la ceinture, que le gouvernement doit sauver l’économie, qu’il faut rembourser la sacro-sainte dette et qu’il nous faut absolument prendre des mesures d’austérité. Durant ce temps, c’est dans nos conditions de vie qu’ils ont coupé. Alors que les grandes entreprises et les plus riches de notre société ne cessent d’augmenter leurs profits, nous, au bas de la pyramide sociale, on a de la difficulté à joindre les deux bouts.
