You will find at the end the link to L'Humanité in English, a selection of articles published in the communist daily newspaper L'Humanité, in Paris (France).
There would not be something more stupid than this writer not recognizing that he makes a real mistake. There is a petition circulating in Québec demanding the step-down of Liberal Premier Jean Charest for not considering the need of a public inquiry into financial contributions to political parties and contracts given to private corporations for governments’ public services in return.
The Québec Federation of Labour (500 000 members) presses also the government to do so. It is also an about-face for the current Editor. The critics against this people’s demand were first published in Pour la KOMMITERN now!
The communists must not allow themselves to stay behind the mood of the population. In English-speaking C
anada, the newspaper of the Communist party, People’s Voice report: the Calgary citizens are facing the rampage of neo-Nazis; in Vancouver, people are opposed to closing schools and defend altogether the public education in British Columbia. Still in Western Canada, the Saskatchewan Federation of Labour will be mobilizing to defeat the reactionary policies of the provincial government. In Manitoba, the Communist Party has a candidate in the Winnipeg North federal by-election, an important riding in the history of the Communist party since the 1919 General Strike.

In Ontario, US Steel locked out the 900 workers and 9000 retirees (in Hamilton), but the working people remember the historic 1946 strike which helped bring the Rand Formula and the closed shop to Canada.
In Québec, the workers are feeling for a change. They tried the Parti québécois for a very long period. They did the same thing with the Liberal Party. They gave its chance to the Action démocratique du Québec that was propelled to the rank of official opposition. Now they have David facing Goliath. David is Amir Khadir, the sole representative of the party Québec solidaire, one out of 125 deputies in the National Assembly. But the overall impression: he is de facto the main workers' opposition to the government. He is really full of energy and it is encouraging for the working people.
Most likely, there will be inroads in the island of Montréal in the coming elections. The communists take part to the development of Québec solidaire as individual members. La Vie Réelle will contribute through its friends, who speak several languages, to outreach the immigrants living in the Québec metropolis. While there are 7, 8 million inhabitants in Québec, half of them live in this city.
The French-Canadian working class is well-educated, discipl
ined, experienced and self-confident. The workers are no more afraid of scams and bogies.

In Québec, almost everybody is looking towards the future, which is no more dreadful and worrying.
Canada today, United States will follow on…
