La YCL-LJC condamne avec véhémence le coup d’État contre le Venezuela perpétré par les États-Unis, le Canada, l’Union Européenne et les gouvernements réactionnaires d’Amérique du Sud, incluant ceux du Brésil et de la Colombie, les deux représentant des bases arrières potentielles pour des plans d’invasion de l’impérialisme OTAN et US.
The YCL-LJC vehemently condemns the Coup d’État attempt against Venezuela perpetrated by the US, Canada, the European Union and reactionary governments in South America, including Colombia and Brazil, which represent potential back bases for US – NATO imperialism’s plans of invasion.

On January 17th, Doug Ford’s Conservative government announced that tuition fees would be reduced by 10% under the slogan “for the people”. This benign-sounding announcement heralds an attack on students’ political power and our access to a quality, public-funded post-secondary education.

The YCL-LJC condemns Doug Ford’s January 17th announcement on post-secondary education and calls for all progressive organisations, including student unions, labour and all kind of on-campus groups to mobilise against this attack aimed at weakening the student fightback and at going one step further in the direction of privatisation and commodification of our education.
In a vicious way similar to the ‘free speech’ directive (that was all about empowering hate and bigoted speech on campus), Ontario’s reactionary government is playing with words and presents this new attack as a benefit for students. It furthers the provocation to the point where it announces that students’ tuition burden will be lowered by 10%. However, a closer look to the numbers makes it clear that the real goal of this announcement has very little to do with a move towards public, free education.
Central Executive Committe, January 2019
The work of communist historian Stanley Bréhaut Ryerson clearly shows how Canada was built on Indigenous land and on the exploitation of the working class. In this regard, little has changed since then.
Comité exécutif central, janvier 2019
Faisant référence au Canada, l’historien communiste Stanley Ryerson affirmait que ce pays a été créé par le vol des terres autochtones et par l’exploitation de la classe ouvrière.
Malheureusement, pas grand chose a changé depuis ce temps.
