The Trudeau government was elected in 2015 after a decade of Conservative austerity and attacks on working people. Four years later, it is clear that Bay street is still in control.
Canada is not meeting carbon emission targets as the government does the bidding of the oil and gas monopolies while trampling Indigenous sovereignty. Living standards continue to decline for the vast majority with stagnating wages, precarious work, sky-high rents, and manufacturing jobs continuing to disappear. Racism has grown along with ultra-right and fascist hate groups with ties to Scheer’s Conservatives and Bernier’s “People’s Party”. Militarism has expanded along with an aggressive foreign policy that is headed in the direction of war.
We need truly left voices in Parliament prepared to rollback corporate power, defend the interests of working people and take urgent and necessary action to avoid the worst of the climate crisis.
Full employment & higher wages
Tax the corporations & the wealthy
Slash carbon emissions
Scrap free trade to save manufacturing jobs, family farms & food sovereignty

A massive social housing program
Expand labour rights
Nationalize energy, the banks & insurance companies
Withdraw from NATO
Scrap “security state” laws
Self-determination for Indigenous peoples & Quebec
Full gender & 2S/LGBTIQ equality
Vote Communist!
This election alone won’t solve the huge challenges facing working people. We need to build a powerful and united movement that can win far-reaching reforms through mass political action inside and outside Parliament, to curb corporate power and open the door for socialism and working class power. Voting Communist sends a clear message that another Canada – and a better world – is necessary, urgent and worth fighting for.
Vote Communist, and join us in the struggle for a better future!
