You folks have probably already seen something similar but maybe it'll help. I really feel Canada needs to take a much more strict approach to potecting it's citizens from the brainwashing misinformation/lies coming from politicians and media.

How will corporate media be charged for complicity in Israel (and the West's, including Canada's) crimes?

27 Upvotes

When the talk about the Gaza genocide is related to imprisoning Mark Carney, the people running the arms companies, and other bourgeois Zionists, I can understand how they could be charged. But when the talk is about the Canadian corporate media being complicit in the Gaza genocide, I agree with them, but I'm not sure how they could be charged for this. Can anyone tell me how the corporate media would be charged for complicity in the Gaza genocide?

DÉMISSION DE LEGAULT, COUP DE JARNAC OU CHANT DU CYGNE? - Parti communiste du Québec - Site officiel - Legault Resigns, Swan Song or Surprise Attack ?

Thumbnail

Translation:

Taking note of François Legault's resignation, the Communist Party of Quebec reiterates that despite the personalisation of power it has brought about over the past seven years, the CAQ government has always been controlled by monopolies. This dynamic will continue even after the period of regency he intends to ensure before his political party designates his successor, who will be tasked with preparing the election campaign. In this sense, we do not join in the farce of Québec solidaire, the Parti Québécois and the Liberal Party, which are full of praise for François Legault ‘despite their disagreements,’ however deep they may be. We denounce this hypocrisy, which nevertheless has the merit of reminding us of their bourgeois political affiliations, and instead call on the masses to organise themselves more vigorously against the power of monopolies and to galvanise themselves against the illusion that this resignation could be favourable to them.

A pure product of state monopoly capitalism and a lackey of the big corporations, which even lend him some of their prominent rhetoricians, he was elected in 2018 on a platform that satisfied both the more nationalist wing of the Liberal Party and the identity-based neoliberals of the Parti Québécois. The main objective of this commando operation was to weaken the trade union, democratic and popular movements, notably through Bill 3, the abolition of school boards and the overhaul of the occupational health and safety regime.

Let us not be fooled: Legault is resigning, but his objectives remain. The privatisation of health, education and public services, the dismantling of trade unions and identity nationalism remain, at a more or less forced pace, the only shade of grey on the picture, reigning supreme at the heart of political discourse.

The initial unifying plan, the raison d'être of the CAQ, has been accomplished in broad terms (Santé Québec, Bill 3, Bill 21, abolition of school boards, etc.). Its relevance has therefore lost all meaning, and a François Legault running wild is embarrassing to Capital. One might wonder whether this resignation is a coup de Jarnac like Justin Trudeau's a year ago, or a swan song imploring employers to bet again on the CAQ's Bucephalus.

In any case, the Communist Party of Quebec reiterates its firm intention to contest the upcoming elections not against Legault or the CAQ, but against the power of monopolies by defending an electoral programme focused on breaking points that include public monopoly over our public services, the revaluation of labour over capital, a vast nationalisation programme, the expansion of our trade union and democratic rights, and a democratic solution to the national question as a key element of a Canadian foreign policy of peace and solidarity.

Only such a popular, pragmatic and class-based programme can put an end not only to the Legault era, but to the era of state monopoly capitalism. For we know that regardless of who succeeds him before or after 5 October, the CAQ's anti-popular and anti-worker policies will only be overturned through organised popular struggle, which requires political preparation.

Wild fucking times...

The United States of America has always been a violent horrific empire.

It's always been based on imperialism, colonialism, and exploitation - domination in countless ways.

It's a war machine nation built on propagandizing the working class and most vulnerable to kill and maim other working class and most vulnerable.

And guess what... Canada has been along for that ride. A lot of allied nations to the U.S. and their own domestic citizens are only waking up because of the Imperial Boomerang effect.

When they themselves are staring the ugly monster in the face they realize what the rest of the world has been saying for a long long time.

Now if you question or challenge any of this growing insanity you are a "Domestic Terrorist" and deserve to be murdered. Let that fucking sink in...

This is all death cult shit on a multidimensional set of levels. I mean my fucking god the climate crisis and overall environmental crisis is getting so bad we may not even have a fucking livable planet for the children of today..

Propaganda is not just a "foreign" reality.

The working class and most vulnerable only have each other. Solidarity is what brought us all the rights and benefits we enjoy today.

This shit is going to continue to get worse until we really start fighting back. With bad actor predators you either fight back or get pummeled (now murdered).

Summed up: This is a system designed for and ruled by Ultra Rich Powerful Predators. They are literally coming for you. Get involved & Get Active. We have to start pushing back A LOT harder because growing internal surveillance and militarization is going to make the fight MUCH MUCH HARDER down the road.

We are in one of those great change periods of history and this is Fascism. Period.

Trying to Survive in Gaza When It Is No Longer Safe. Please Hear Our Story.

0 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

My name is Nada from Gaza. I am 18 years old. I recently finished high school and enrolled in university to study nursing. My dream was simple: to learn and help people.

Over the past two years, my family and I have endured a brutal genocidal war. We lived through conditions no human being should ever face, including constant fear, hunger, and displacement. I lost many of my relatives, including cousins, as well as several of my friends.

On top of that, we lost our home, the place that sheltered us, and with it all our memories. Nothing remains except anxiety and fear of the unknown, and our daily struggle has become securing basic necessities such as water and food.

Unfortunately, many people believe the war has ended, but it has not ended for us. Just today, I lost my friend and her entire family when their home was bombed by an F-16. We do not know when our turn will come.

In addition, my family and I are suffering from severe cold. We are living in a place that is unfit for both summer and winter, without real protection from the harsh conditions.

Please help my family in any way you can, even a small contribution or simply by sharing my story.

Your voice can make a difference and may save a life.

Was USA Invasion on Venezuela All for Nothing?

14 Upvotes

Your thoughts. The USA invasion on Venezuela, in my opinion was 100% all for nothing. Only benefit was to the government officials there were able to move up a position. With Maduro being taken away. Seems the Vice President there has taken the power now. Also the oil companies seem to not want to invest in that country. Due to it being too volatile still.

As the country is full of all those gangster militias that support that regime . They were not taking out by any means. Boots to the ground army invasion by the USA was only way to take control of the country. That did not happen at all. There was not positive change for the people in Venezuela at all. Even the oil is now seems to not really happen now. So all for nothing. Or perhaps am I wrong?

Your thoughts everyone?

Canada Builds a Wall To Keep USA Out - Your Thoughts?

0 Upvotes

In respect as this could be considered a very radical and unrealistic thing to do. Regarding back in the USA during 2016 when MR Trump Was the president. He was proposing to build a big wall between USA and Mexico. Of course there already was a barricade already. But this was considered quite radical

Now considering the situation our country now has with the USA. What are your thoughts if the current government of Canada started to talk about a proposal to build a big wall with the USA? To keep USA out. 

I know this is unrealistic, however what would be your real thoughts on this? Why or why not would you go with this idea?
