Through this solidarity struggle, it has become clear that as a radical community, we need to stand in solidarity with the kanien'kehá:ka kahnistensera. Because these traditionalist activists from Kahnawa:ke have been fighting for the last fifty years for the sovereignty of their people. Because they are among the few Mohawk people who still hold fast to their pre-colonial mode of governance, called the Great Law of Peace.
A message from CLAC-allies.
Respect Kanien'kehà:ka sovereignty, support the search for unmarked graves

Sunday September 11 at noon at the A-M050 of 'Université du Québec à Montréal (UQAM). While the attacks of the various police forces against indigenous peoples who defend the last inches of their territories continue, our governments are announcing with great fanfare the hosting of the COP15 on biodiversity from December 7 to 19 in Tio'tia:ke (Montreal), a conference where UN member states discuss their environmental policies. The hypocrisy is at its peak as the crisis is upon us.
Coup de hache: porter un coup à l’aide d’une hache. Historiquement le coup de hache a été la première étape de la colonisation. Présentement des méthodes d’abattage plus sophistiquées renvoient le coup de hache à la résistance. Ex: «Crisser un coup de hache dans la machine capitaliste de destruction de la nature!»
On November 27th, at 2PM, at the corner of Dorchester/Greene (Atwater metro), the Convergence des luttes anticapitalistes (CLAC) is calling for a demonstration in solidarity with the Wet'suwet'en people of British Columbia, who are fighting the canadian colonial state.

Le 1er mai 2022, suite à l'appel de la Convergence des lutte anticapitalistes (CLAC), plus d'un demi-millier de personnes ont pris la rue pour la journée des travailleuses et des travailleurs. Le thème mis de l'avant cette année était : "Colonial et écocidaire, le capitalisme c'est la guerre !". La manifestation a débuté à 17h30 à la Place du Canada, dans le centre-ville, après plusieurs discours de militantes autochtones Anishnabées/Ojibwe et Kanyen'kehà:ka.

In this third episode of season 2, we address the stakes surrounding the police in indigenous territories, whether led by Indigenous or settlers. We talk with one of the founders of the Kanien’kéha language camp in Akwesasne and the relationship between Indigenous communities and police forces.
Another big protest for climate, what's the point?
Of course it'll be nice to have as many people as there was in 2019, but in the end, even Greta couldn't make our governments change their policies. Well, ok, it falls a few days after the federal election, and we can hope that it can put some pressure on the bewly elected officials... But we know it won't: whoever is in power after the elections, nothing significant will be done, nothing significant has ever been done for climate in so-called Canada. Since the beginning of colonization, the State steals, exploits and destroys the land on which we live and which, ironically, ensure our survival.
Les ateliers se tiendront un samedi sur deux, a partir de la mi-juillet, à 19h dans la cour du DIRA (2035 Saint-Laurent):
17 juillet : Historique du rôle des infrastructures de transport et de communication dans le projet capitaliste colonial québécois
31 juillet : Réaménagement du territoire en cours et à venir : la stratégie maritime du Québec
14 aout : Résistances à la réorganisation urbaine, stratégies et pratiques
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.
Ecofascism is an ideology that merges neo-fascism with environmentalism. Ecofascists share many of the same concerns as radical leftist environmentalists in that they want to protect the Earth, as well as animals, from the ecological destruction that has been brought on by capitalism. Where they differ, of course, is that ecofascists aim to do so through tactics that spawn from racist and white supremacist principles.

Intersectionality is mentioned in about all of social science literature nowadays. Typically, this concept shows the interdependent relation between generic situations and how different domination systems can overlap. Intersectionality is however, as it presents itself historically, an analytical tool developed especially with the aim to build an understandable holistic view of the critics of capitalism, patriarchy and racism. It is why this concept is so important for environmental struggles.

Racialized people are victims of many forms of discrimination. For instance, during the 2016 census, the income of people reported as belonging to visible minorities was 30% lower than white people. Another example is the fact that polluting factories and city dumps are often found on land populated by Indigenous and racialized people. One may assume that capitalist developments simply prefer territory inhabited by poorer people, but wealth does not explain what is seen in the field. In practice, capitalist developments are often used as a pretext to enforce racist ideology. [1]
Given the current situation, the day of workshops "Ecology, anticapitalism and resistance" planned for Saturday, March 28th at the SCPA is postponed to a future date. The date will be announced when it gets clearer what this future has in store for us.
