"CLASH FEARED, POLICE READY," Hamilton Spectator. October 4, 1933. Page 13. ---- But Fascists, Communists Did Not Meet ---- Provincial Officers Help Montreal Force --- Montreal, Oct. 4. - (CP) - Provincial and city police were waiting watchfully to-day for any sign of trouble between communists and Fascists after word of a threatened clash last night resulted in a quick mustering of police in the north-end section of the city. Twenty-four provincial police arrived from Quebec city to augment the local provincial squad.

While nothing developed in the north end street, a group of young men alleged by police to be Italians broke a large store window in the theater district and then disappeared. An attempt was also made to break the window of a store in the east end, but arrival of the police caused the young men to depart hurriedly.

In an embarrassing but completely predictable turn of event, it's revealed that at least 330 out of 553 names on the Memorial to the Victims of Communism have potential links to Nazis or fascists.

A 2023 report for Canadian Heritage recommended more than 330 names be excluded to be on the safe side, the records noted. The exclusions were recommended because of the lack of information about the individuals or organizations and whether they might have links to fascist organizations or the Nazis. Some of the entries could also be removed because they have no direct link to Canada. The memorial, which is located near the corner of Wellington and Bay streets, is supposed to honour those who suffered under communism. But concerns have been raised over the years by Jewish organizations and historians that names of eastern Europeans who collaborated with the Nazis in the Holocaust have been put forward in an attempt to whitewash their past. The memorial was supposed to be unveiled in November 2023 but that was put on hold after members of Parliament honoured Yaroslav Hunka, a Ukrainian soldier with the Waffen-SS Galicia Division, a voluntary unit that was under the command of the Nazis. That incident became an international embarrassment for Canada.

Canada’s leader of the official opposition pulled over on the side of a highway Tuesday evening and paid a surprise visit to a group of far-right extremists who have staged protests at the Nova Scotia–New Brunswick border for the last three years. Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre was seen posing for selfies and giving pep talks to members of the group, which subscribes to a range of fringe conspiracies and extreme views, in livestream videos posted on social media. The group has been camped out at the border for the last month purportedly to protest the carbon tax, however, the group is led by the same people who have been protesting at the interprovincial border since 2021 — originally to oppose public health orders.

Oh! Canaduh!

[krystal-prisms]

For my fellow Canadians, we all know well that Canada tends to follow America in whatever election results, so it is extra important that we DO NOT let the same thing that happened today in America to happen in Canada, we have to prepare for the 2025 election and make sure we do not also descend into fascism and it is EXTRA important that everyone votes

[warwickroyals]

It has nothing to do with third-party votes, or even Palestine, by the way. These people just hate women. They hate LGBT people and they hate immigrants, and they want you all to die. That's literally it.

The only thing we can do now is continue to be resilient and continue survive despite it all.

CANADIAN POLICE COLLABORATING WITH FASCIST TERRORISTS IN TRANSPHOBIC RALLY

1 Million March 4 Children is a transphobic far right rally seeking to remove education of gender and sexuality from schools and furthermore to restrict access to gender affirming care for trans youth. It is being supported by a number of organizations, including Indigo People, also known as Project Indigo, a project organized by Raven News, a far right anti-vax convoy affiliated news source. This organization is funded by Police On Guard For Thee, an organization of active and retired Canadian police officers with anti-vax sentiments, who openly espouse doubts in the legislative assemblies which govern their work.

Furthermore, another supporter of this march is the Canadian Democratic Defense Affiliation, which includes among its affiliates The Myth Is Canada. This organization openly espouses a goal of a coup in Canada for the overthrow of the constitution to implement their own constitution, which actively targets "cultural marxism" and "political correctness" for criminalization.

In this manner, the police of Canada is collaborating with a fascist terrorist organization through targeting trans youth. The contradictions are sharpening, and the police are revealing their class collaborationist characteristics more and more! The role of the police is to protect private property of the bourgeoise, and when capitalism is in crisis, as it most certainly is in Canada and across the world, the police become divided between protecting the property of the imperialist bourgeoisie or the property of the precariat and petite bourgeoisie (who face threats of proletarianization as the rate of profit decays). Regardless of the general direction, this will always result in violence which targets the working class and oppressed groups of Canada! Stand not with the fascist reactionary forces nor with the Canadian colonial-imperialist bourgeoisie, and study the methods of working class struggle to replace police slave drivers with working class militancy and solidarity!

"BURNING OF JEWISH BOOKS IS PROTESTED," Winnipeg Tribune. May 11, 1933. Page 2. ---- Close of 1,200 Attend Meeting of Protest Against Nazi Activities --- The civilized nations of the world. should protest the burning of Jewish books in Germany, declared Rabbi Osher Zilberstein at a protest meeting against the recent Nazi actions held in the Hebrew Free school Wednesday night.

A large audience, numbering close to 1,200, attended the meeting to hear Rabbi Zilberstein, Dr. I. Pearlman, Marcus Hyman, and several other speakers. Ald. M. A. Gray was in the chair.

Rabbi Zilberstein said the protest of the world should say. "Give up your powder and guns, you modern barbarians; such things are a danger, even in the hands of civilized people, much more so in yours; put on bow and arrow and turn back to your woods." He characterized the burning of the books as a "horrible exhibition" and an "insane practice."

The modern mediaevals of Germany burned the records of physics, mathematics, medical science, music and art, only because they were of Jewish authorship. Such things could only be condemned and pitied. Hitler had tried for 14 years to show that the Jews were responsible for Germany's troubles, and later for the world's, but now he was demonstrating that they were responsible only insofar as Einstein's Theory of Relativity, Freud's Psychoanalysis and Heine's poems were.

Dr. Pearlman stated that that not only were the Hitlerites destroying the best that had been created in their world of literature, but an integral part of German culture."They may destroy the books, but they will never succeed in destroying the spirit contained in them," declared S. Miller, another speaker.

i dont actually know when the american election is just sometime within the next few days right

[pogasssm]

are leftists finally ready to start worming our way into politics or are we gonna keep saying shit like ‘oh we wouldn’t make waves’. there’s so many ppl that back leftist policies without saying it outright and they have massive support as politicians. can we start running for office. can we start becoming a part of the table instead of watching from the outside and criticizing it. if we can’t win by peaceful protest, and we don’t wanna do violent protest, why can’t we win by their own game? fuck i don’t care if we start a communist party and name it ‘ really nice centrist liberals’ we are not politically active enough. we need to start becoming mayors and senators and mps. why are we sitting down and watching while the two party system pushes us further to fascism?

Conservative delegates voted Saturday to add some new social conservative policies to their policy playbook, including a proposal to limit access to transgender health care for minors and another to do away with vaccine mandates. Despite warnings that these policies could be weaponized by their political opponents to hurt their standing among more moderate voters, a strong majority of the delegates on hand voted for a motion that stated children should be prohibited from gender-related "life-altering medicinal or surgical interventions," and for another that said Canadians should have "bodily autonomy" when it comes to vaccines and other health treatments. About 69 per cent of the delegates agreed that young people should be barred from gender-affirming care, which sometimes includes hormone-related treatments that delay puberty or promote the development of masculine or feminine sex characteristics.
