Thank you for your support.
The global economic crisis that closed the first decade of the 21st century has demonstrated that the contradictions of capitalism cannot be overcome. The challenge for socialist analysis is to reveal both the nature of these contradictions in the neoliberal era of globalized finance, and their consequences in our time. Crises need to be understood as turning points that open up opportunities. | more... |

Rally: Stop the Drive to War Against Iran and Syria! Almost exactly 9 years ago, many of us were preparing for massive mobilizations against a US-led invasion of Iraq. Underneath all of the political speeches and media panic about weapons of mass destruction, we knew the real reason behind the war drive: oil. Now, in the case of Syria and Iran, we are confronted by the same speeches about WMD, the same portraits of megalomaniacal dictators, the same efforts to soften public opinion in favour of war. And, again, we are confronted by the same underlying issue: oil. We need to show our solidarity with the people of Syria and Iran by doing what we can to prevent a US and NATO-led aggression. We must stand up and protest this drive to war. The Toronto Association for Peace and Solidarity (TAPS) and the Committee for the Defense of the Iranian People's Rights (CODIR) are holding a rally this Saturday, February 4, at Dundas Square at 2 pm. Please join us and raise your voice against war, and for a Canadian foreign policy that is based on peace. |
