May Day
Statement
Canadians for Peace and Socialism
April 17, 2010
May Day 2010 takes place at a
moment when another global failure of the capitalist system continues to wreak
economic havoc on the lives of millions of workers and their families. The
working people have been abandoned by their governments. Senior governments
collaborate with big business, diverting state resources from social needs of
the people to a profit recovery for the banks, stock markets, private investors
and a small parasitical class of wealth and privilege.

On the Occasion of the 140th
Anniversary of the Birth of Lenin
Don Currie - Chair of
CPS
April 22, 2010
Today it has become fashionable, for neo-Marxists to
speak of Marxism without Lenin. Not only is that wrong in principle, it
is impossible in practice. Marx, Engels and Lenin are a continuum of
the science of dialectical and historical materialism that armed the
workers and their allies with a reliable theoretical guide to confront
capitalism through all of its stages of development.

A Call for a May Day Coalition
An Open Letter from John Beeching, Honorary Chair of
CPS
April 16, 2010
May Day 2010 is
approaching. Now is the time to unite in solidarity to halt the big
business attack on those who work to live. Yes, we do not live in a
classless society - there is a working class! The working class is us,
the overwhelming majority and we need to speak up on our own behalf.

The Liberal Party Thinkers Conference
Don Currie, Editor FOS
April 11, 2010
The Liberal Party
Thinkers Conference, Montreal March 27, 28th 2010, was convened on the false
premise that capitalism in Canada between today and 2017, the 150 Anniversary of
Confederation, is still capable of progressive development. Nothing could be
more remote from the truth.

Lenin and Today's Problem in the
Trade Union Movement
Tim Buck, Lenin and Canada
From an article appearing in the Canadian Tribune August 27, 1969
Progressive activists in the trade union
movement have to look further and further afield today in their search
for answers to the many new questions which crop up, literally day by
day. Gone are the days when it was enough to be: "Again collaboration
with the bosses." That is still the starting line, of course, but life
and growth, and some progress, are teaching the members in general to
ask militants: "What would you do?" This is progress, provided that
militants have logical, considered answers.
