The rightward turn of the federal NDP under Thomas Mulcair means that there has never been a more important time than now to build the socialist alternative within the party. Socialism cannot be “amended” out of the NDP. It has been there since the founding of the CCF and NDP, and it takes energy from the struggles of the youth, or workers, and of oppressed peoples (such as the Quebec student movement, Occupy, and Idle No More). Even though we have had this temporary set-back with the watering down of the party constitution, the battle for the future of the NDP is nowhere near over. We call on everybody who opposed the change to the preamble of the constitution to help us continue the fight!
“Likes” on Facebook groups are good for morale, but we need real support to make real change. We are asking everyone who supported us in this struggle to take out a subscription to Fightback now, so that we can continue the fight.
A basic 12-issue subscription to Fightback is just $20, but to best help us in the struggle for socialism, we offer solidarity subscriptions for a regular monthly contribution of $5, $20, $50, or any other amount.
With your help and support, we were able to make sure that there was a strong voice for socialism at the 2013 convention. With your continued support and subscription, we can make that socialist voice is even stronger for the struggles to come.
Join us in the fight!
