Place Du Peuple - Square Victoria

Montréal--

We (nota bene: pas la CLAC) are calling for an anarchist and anticapitalist contingent on November 22th during the national demonstration called by l'ASSÉ for education right ¡No Pasarán! Meet-up at square victoria nearby the statue at 2 PM.

Bring your friends, your flags, your banners and all your rage. Because the students fight is a fight against capitalism, elitism and commercialization of education, Anarchist presence is important to promote the tactics and ideas that we believe in. Lets share our will to fight with conviction in solidarity with students, workers and others oppressed and forgotten people of this inhuman and greedy system...

Because the system won't crash on its own, this is fucking class war!

Manifestation nationale du 22 novembre:
L'ÉDUCATION AU SERVICE DE LA GLOBALISATION:
¡NO PASARÁN!

http://www.facebook.com/events/432246923490131/

Parce que la paix sociale ne s'achète pas à coup de promesses électorales ;

Parce qu'à la démocratie représentative, nous opposons la démocratie directe ;

Parce chaque jour, le capitalisme et son régime néolibéral fait de plus en plus de victimes ;

Parce que nous sommes solidaires des plus de 3 300 arrêtéEs depuis le déclenchement de la grève étudiante ;

Parce que la loi 12, toujours en vigueur, est illégitime ;

Parce que contre «la loi et l'ordre», nous restons debout et uniEs ;

Le samedi 22 septembre, formons un contingent anticapitaliste dans le cadre de la manifestation étudiante de la CLASSE.

Féministes, libertaires, anticapitalistes et autres insoumisEs, rejoignons-nous au coin Lafontaine et Cherrier (près de la mare à canards) à 14 h, le samedi 22 septembre 2012.

La lutte continue ! Aux luttes sociales, pas de réponse électorale!

March 26, 2012, Montreal -- This week, Quebec students escalate their tactics, building on almost one month of a general strike, and last Thursday’s massive demonstration against the Charest government tuition hikes.

The ongoing strike and Thursday’s historic demonstration are a starting point, not an end, as many student organizers have pointed out. The upcoming week of disruptive actions is especially important.

We are writing to support the Coalition Large de l’Association pour une Solidarité Syndicale Étudiante (CLASSE) who have called for a week of economic disruption to pressure the Charest government to cancel the tuition hikes. We agree that it’s not just through symbolic protests and actions – which are important to build solidarity and support – that the Charest government will capitulate. Rather, they will respond to the sustained and tangible disruption of the Quebec economy.

Already, business organizations, politicians, police and mainstream media commentators have referred to the economic impacts of the general strike. More blocked bridges, ports, highways and government buildings, as well as the continued disruption of colleges and universities, will force the hand of the Charest government.

Beyond the immediate demands to cancel the tuition hikes, sustained economic disruption opens up political space to talk about broader social demands. In addition to demands for free access to education (“gratuité scolaire”), some student associations have made broader links, by opposing Plan Nord or taking a stand in favor of full access to schools for non-status persons. Sustained strikes and disruptions opens up democratic spaces in the streets and in our communities for larger demands to confront capitalism, patriarchy and all forms of exploitation and oppression. A social strike puts democracy into the hands of people and their grassroots assemblies and institutions, not the sellout politicians and parties loyal to “representative democracy”.

We are writing, as local grassroots social justice collectives, groups and organizations, to publicly support this week’s economic disruptions. We will encourage our members to lend tangible support, by participating, and by engaging others in support of this week’s escalation. We denounce the use of police to attack students who are using legitimate tactics to force the hand of a government that refuses to listen to popular power. We also express our solidarity with blockaders and resisters on the frontlines, and denounce all attempts to use the media or police to divide movements.
