Le 1er mai 2022, suite à l'appel de la Convergence des lutte anticapitalistes (CLAC), plus d'un demi-millier de personnes ont pris la rue pour la journée des travailleuses et des travailleurs. Le thème mis de l'avant cette année était : "Colonial et écocidaire, le capitalisme c'est la guerre !". La manifestation a débuté à 17h30 à la Place du Canada, dans le centre-ville, après plusieurs discours de militantes autochtones Anishnabées/Ojibwe et Kanyen'kehà:ka.
The Convergence des luttes anticapitalistes (CLAC) denounces the violent repression of its demonstration again this year. Indeed, the SPVM proceeded, as usual, to unjustified and brutal arrests. The police used truncheons and tear gas to silence the people who are tired of being exploited every day to enrich the nauseating bourgeoisie and their companies that profit from COVID-19. Several people were injured and the police even destroyed the cell phone of one participant.
CLAC (an Anti-Capitalist Convergence) publish today a first episode of a series of podcast shaped as interviews name The Whole Orchard. The Whole Orchard aims to share information relating to the abolition of police, prison and the justice system taking on topics such as the jailing of migrants, criminalization of dissent et transformative justice. The first episode introduces the idea behind the project and propose a historical picture of police in colonized Canada and the United States more specifically in so-called « Québec ».
This past MayDay, like each year for over a century, was the International Workers' Day. Despite being confined, many people took action to redecorate the city. The situation might seem grim, but there are still a few positive observations we can make.
The air in our city is clearer that it has been for over a century. Oil consumption slows down and greenhouse gases production diminishes. For many people, being confined is an opportunity to review our unhealthy relationship with work within an hyperperformist and hyperproductivist society.
