A message from CLAC-allies. --- The Montreal Autonomous Tenants' Union is calling for a public demonstration this Thursday, 9am, at Lionel Groulx metro station. At 10am, police will be initiating one of 2022's largest encampment evictions, and one of the first major evictions of the fall season. We will move from Lionel Groulx to the site of the encampments.
Action
This past MayDay, like each year for over a century, was the International Workers' Day. Despite being confined, many people took action to redecorate the city. The situation might seem grim, but there are still a few positive observations we can make.
The air in our city is clearer that it has been for over a century. Oil consumption slows down and greenhouse gases production diminishes. For many people, being confined is an opportunity to review our unhealthy relationship with work within an hyperperformist and hyperproductivist society.
A banner that reads:
"Essential: Health workers, delivery people, cashiers
Non essential: Landlords, bankers, bosses
May Day 2020: Celebrate the workers. Destroy capitalism"

In these times of pandemic, capital kills more than ever. Workers are left without equipment in hospitals. Confinement falls upon us because our government did too little, too late. Rich landlords who brought the virus back from their latest trip are angered by a rent strike that their penniless tenants have no other choice but to partake in. The people dying right now are among the most vulnerable, from grocery store clerks, to delivery workers, prisoners, homeless folks, and undocumented migrants. All of this while the most fortunate get to work from home. Nevertheless, social distancing remains an important way to reduce transmission, and this is why WE WILL NOT MEET PHYSICALLY FOR A MAYDAY PROTEST. We will however try to make resistance as visible as possible, given the difficult context.
For immediate distribution.

There are one thousand and one reasons to shame the so-called "holiday spirit". Whether it's the charity fundraisers, Christmas jingles played on repeat *ad nauseam*, themed ads that make any piece of crap pass as a good deal, not to mention the gift shopping stampede.

Combien de personnes le système de Métro peut transporter en une journée? Et si on décidait tous d'aller faire une balade sur l'Île Notre-Dame dimanche le jour du Grand Prix? Juste pour voir combien de personne peuvent entrer dans le métro?
En arrivant sur l'île vous pouvez virer de bord et puis recommencer. Juste pour le plaisir.

From 4 to 10 June: Autonomous actions. Wherever they are, we'll be there too!
The nightly protests will disrupt this crass elite at play in western downtown every night. To kick off the week of activities, the Grand Prix is throwing a "glittering" banquet, where a table with a driver costs a mere $25,000! Let's make their "prestigious and festive" soirée our own "Grand Evening".
Against Mayor Tremblay
Tremblay has been outraged for weeks, calling for calm to avoid the inevitable ... Let's give him something he can be proud to be outraged about! Defy his anti-mask regulation!
Against the "special law"
The special law is a desperate attempt by the state to regain control over the popular protest and protect its tourist season. This law unmasks the real face of the police state, which represses and criminalizes in order to impose its policies. Bravo, Charest! You've sparked an unprecedented popular protest movement in Quebec!
Against capitalism
The Grand Prix represents a golden windfall of millions for the very rich. Meanwhile, people working at the Grand Prix will only take home a bit of cash necessary for their daily survival.
Against the capitalist elite
The international elite of white, western men, fascinated by their "big deluxe cars", are dreaming of cruising around downtown Montreal. Their very presence embodies the concentration of wealth and social inequality and symbolizes the causes of the global economic, ecological, political, and social crises.
Against social cleansing!
Each summer, the SPVM pushes the poor and marginalized out of public space in a huge operation of social cleansing designed to please the rich and tourists during festival season. There are only a few days remaining for them to quell the protests which disrupt downtown every night. Let's be more numerous than ever around Crescent Street, where they'll park their Ferraris.
Responding to the call issued by the student movement, CLAC will take part in a week of economic disruption to promote the social strike.
Because Bernie Ecclestone is worth 2.5 billion and Bachand gives him 15 million dollar gifts. Because the F1 is a $10 billion business which sucks up public funds to enrich itself, wherever it takes place around the world.
Fuck the Grand Prix!
DISCLAIMER: THE "GRAND SOIR" ORGANIZERS WILL BRAG THAT THEIR EVENT IS A BENEFIT FOR STE-JUSTINE'S HOSPITAL FOR CHILDREN, AND THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA WILL NO DOUBT RECYCLE THE SHIT OUT OF THIS INFO... WELL IF THE PARTICIPANTS TO THIS CAPITALIST FARCE ARE REALLY CONCERNED WITH THE WELFARE OF SICK CHILDREN, THEY DON'T NEED A BOGUS PRETEXT TO GIVE THEIR DISPOSABLE MONEY TO CHARITY! IF YOU HAVE TOO MUCH CASH, YOU FUCKING WANKERS, JUST GIVE IT TO THE HOSPITALS AND FUCK RIGHT OFF!
