Earth Day 2026
All Out to Humanize the Natural and Social Environment!
On the occasion of Earth Day 2026, the Communist Party of Canada (Marxist-Leninist) salutes the youth and working people of this country and the peoples all over the world who are organizing to restrict and deprive the monopolies and oligopolies and governments in their service of their ability to pollute, destroy, wage wars, exploit, criminalize and deprive the people of their right to a say over all matters which affect their lives. They trample the sovereign rights of all countries, engage in nation-wrecking and activities which destroy the social and natural environment and also deprive the Indigenous Peoples of treaty and hereditary rights.
CPC(M-L)
recognizes the gravity of the situation facing humankind as a result of
the climate crisis. Canadians, Quebeckers and the Indigenous Peoples
are held hostage by a cartel party system which brings governments to
power which serve narrow private interests and cause serious harm to
the
natural and social environment. Taking care of Mother Earth is a
priority; opposing government pay-the-rich schemes is a necessity. It
is the striving for empowerment of working people from all walks of
life which is life-giving. The natural and social environment cannot be
humanized without
opposing the stranglehold of the oligopolies over government
decision-making and their rule which is causing so much harm around the
world.
CPC(M-L) denounces the ruling elite for marketing self-serving plans in the name of "greening the economy." The Party also denounces attempts at dividing the people by presenting demands to preserve the natural environment as against job creation which pits one section of the people against another on the basis of which side they defend. It is a fact that technical and scientific innovations demand new infrastructures and processes of production. However, the schemes the government is financing are not discussed with the people and their aim is self-serving, not job creation. On the contrary, the new normal is to force the approval of projects before anything is known about them. Police powers are used to impose them in the name of national security, unity, prosperity and meeting crucial goals to curb pollution and create jobs. The degradation of the land, water and sea levels continues as does the harm to flora and fauna and humankind.
Governments
continue their relentless promotion and defence of companies whose
pursuit of private profit endangers the workers and the public and
dispossesses the Indigenous peoples while causing grave harm to Mother
Earth. Despite lofty proclamations, they continue to expropriate
Indigenous peoples, trample on their land and attempt to silence the
thousands of Canadians and Quebeckers opposing specific nation-wrecking
projects.
On Earth Day 2026, the peoples of the world come together to demand proper attention be paid to Mother Earth and denounce the reality that their concerns are not being met. The more environmental disasters occur, the more disinformation pours from the official circles in the United States, Britain, Canada, European countries and others which represent the global elite. They give the impression they are taking measures to bring the climate crisis under control while in fact militarizing the economy, engaging in dangerous war preparations, increasing the number of damaging pay-the-rich schemes and other self-serving practices, all of which damage the natural and social environment.
People are striving to stay the hand of the elites and hold them to account to overcome the disasters taking place as a result of the climate crisis and related problems. Pernicious practices of the ruling elite such as fracking, clear cutting, detrimental mining methods, contamination of rivers, lakes and oceans, the privatization of water, fraudulent environmental assessments or their complete elimination to "fast-track" projects and dispossession of the rightful holders and stewards of the land and wars of aggression and occupations must end!
