    Hands Off Venezuela: How to Fight Imperialism

    On January 3, the United States bombed cities across Venezuela and kidnapped Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro. Donald Trump has clearly exposed the reality of the ‘rules-based international order’, which is nothing but a fig leaf for the interests of western imperialism. This is only the beginning of a drawn out, bloody process for the masses of Venezuela and all Latin America, as Trump looks to reclaim the USA’s backyard by any means necessary. This talk, delivered by comrade Marcus from the Executive Committee of the Revolutionary Communist Party, analyses this situation, explaining how we got here.

  4. How to Organize Revolution

    How to Organize Revolution

    2025 has been a year of revolutions and mass movements. From the "Gen Z revolutions" to the Italian general strikes for Gaza, to the "Block Everything" movement in France - the working class has shown it's capable of shaking society to the core. But in all these movements, despite tremendous bravery, nothing has fundamentally changed. The same oppressive conditions that fuelled the revolutions continue to persist, as capitalism remains intact. History shows that the spontaneous uprising of the oppressed is not enough to change society for good. What's needed is a revolutionary organization, to crystallize the experiences of the past into a program and tactics, and lead the workers to victory. This presentation was recorded at a public event organized by the University of Toronto chapter of the Revolutionary Communist Party. For more talks like this, sign up for our⁠ Montreal Marxist Winter School. This year we'll have a total of 11 inspiring presentations on Marxist theory and history, revolving around the theme of Reform or Revolution. With over 600 participants from across the country last year, this is the event for anyone serious about changing society.

    NDP leadership race begins with a whimper

    This week, Joel and Marco discuss the New Democratic Party leadership race and the disastrous first debate. We discuss why the party is in such dire straits to begin with and why this is representative of broader problems on the left. We explain how the crisis of capitalism is forcing some of the candidates to criticize capitalism, talk about the working class and the need for a general strike. We also go into how the party is using anti-democratic methods to exclude Yves Engler.

    Turmoil in Quebec

    There is a massive crisis in Quebec, at all levels. The CAQ has collapsed in the polls as they use their last year in power to carry out the bidding of the bosses. Quebec solidaire, the only leftwing party in Quebec, which should be benefiting from this situation, is mired in a deep crisis with MNA Vincent Marissal quitting and airing the party's dirty laundry in public. And the unions have declared war against the government and have even talked about organizing a general strike for May 1st.  Joel is joined this week by Julien Arseneau to discuss all of this and more!
