The anticapitalist convergence (CLAC) invites you to the anti-capitalist demonstration on May 1. 🦝 Once again this year, there's no shortage of reasons to demonstrate! This year, the state and capital have stepped up their attacks on tenants, queers, ecology, Gazans and workers.

Le sous-investissement chronique volontaire dans le transport en commun a créé une opportunité économique: il devient possible de mettre en place un système de transport qui vise à faire des profits, en parallèle d’un système de transport à but non lucratif, la STM.¹ En effet, la CDPQ a mis en place un modèle particulier pour le REM, regroupant des investissement provinciaux, fédéraux et de la CDPQ-Infra. À cela s’ajoute une redevance sur les constructions périphériques au projet.

Vous êtes invité-e-s au lancement de “Mauvais coup", le journal officiel de la CLAC pour le 1er mai 2023. Le tout se passera au Centre Social Anarchiste de l'Achoppe le 30 mars à partir de 19:00.

Au menu: Présentation du journal suivie d'interventions des groupes Ben Trop Cher! et SLAM-MATU, qui y ont collaboré, activités ludiques et musique militante!

• 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.

The fight against climate change must break out of its rut. It must also fight the system of borders which benefits certain lives more than others. It must crush this capitalist economy which is always looking to produce more, more and more. It must fight the migrant prison being built in Laval, in which children are raised behind bars. It must fight imperialism which forces countries of the South to produce for a pittance what we consume here in the North. It must fight white supremacy, whether it takes the form of neo-fascist militia, conservative talking heads, or colonial governments which impose their law on unceded native lands. It must fight those who benefit from poisoning the Earth and from the exploitation of our sisters and brothers.

C'est demain jeudi que commence la cinquième édition du Revolution Fest de Montréal !

3 jours de musique sous la bannière de l’anticapitalisme, de l’antifascisme et du féminisme!

Lancé pour la première fois à l’automne 2013 par le chapitre montréalais des Red and Anarchist SkinHeads (RASH) et du Montreal Sisterhood, le Revolution Fest se veut un festival annuel présentant des groupes de musiques et des activités à caractère politique. Ce festival se déroulant sur plusieurs journées dans la ville de Montréal, permet à l’ensemble de la gauche de se rassembler, et ce, dans un cadre festif et de faire la promotion d’une contre-culture vivante et radicalement opposée à toutes les formes que prend l’extrême droite.
