The Great Transition: Reviving post-capitalist solidarities in Montréal

The world is burning. Forest fires, droughts, and floods are multiplying across the globe. The Israeli state is massacring the Palestinian population with the complicity of Western powers, putting the region at risk. Inequalities are on the rise all over the planet. People are being evicted from their homes, and others are struggling to pay the rent, while landlords are getting richer. Grocery is becoming ever more expensive, while large food retailers are making record profits. Migrants drown crossing the Rio Grande and the Mediterranean, while their brothers and sisters are exploited and underpaid in the fields, warehouses, and hospitals of the Global North.

It’s becoming increasingly urgent to implement radical left solutions: socialize the means of production; create worker and consumer cooperatives; de-asphalt and revitalize our living environments; develop non-market housing; decentralize power; collectively share care work; demilitarize our societies. These measures are the bare minimum to create the conditions of a decent life for all. There is an undeniable need to dismantle capitalism, patriarchy, and colonialism.
