We the Workers of Canada (Patriot’s Song)
CHORUS:
We, the workers of Canada
We, the oppressed of our land
Let us stand as one against
The imperialist assassin’s hand.
From the Atlantic provinces
And Quebec to British Columbia
The Yukon, Nunavut and Territories
The people of all the land
Let us stand as one against
The imperialist assassin’s hand.
We, the workers and the oppressed
Have just one cause — we must end the crisis
End the war preparations
Build our new Canada
With genuine independence
And genuine democracy.
(Chorus)
Land and labour of Canada
Is exploited and plundered east, west and north
Without any regard whatsoever
For our lives and liberty.They have only one lust
Maximum profit at any cost to us.
(Chorus in French)
Nous, les ouvriers du Canada,
Nous, les opprimes de notre pays,
Tenons-nous tous et toutes ensemble
Contre les assassins imperialistes.
Des provinces maritimes,
Du Québec, a la Colombie-Britannique
Le Yukon, Nunavut et Terretoires,
Le people de tout le pays,
Tenon-nous tous et toutes ensemble
Contre less assassins impérialistes.
Nous ne voulons pas d’offensive anti-social
Avec la crise économique a la base.
Nous ne voulons pas de guerre imperialiste.
Libérons-nous de toutes formes d’exploitation.
Nous voulons notre Canada
Aux premiers rangs de l’humanite progressiste
(Chorus in English)
