2025 Atlantic Marxist School

The ruling class in Canada stares into an abyss. The post-war global order, which once provided a stable framework for capitalist expansion, is crumbling. Canada, long a junior partner to U.S. imperialism, is now feeling the full force of this disintegration. The privileged position Canada once enjoyed on the world stage is under threat, and this will have profound implications for politics, the economy, and the class struggle.
The ruling class, having delayed the inevitable for years, will soon be forced to offload the costs of this crisis onto the backs of the working class. The question is not if but when this will happen.
While it is impossible to predict every twist and turn in the unfolding crisis, the general trajectory is clear. As workers are forced to confront the devastating effects of this systemic breakdown, the existing political parties and their leaders will be put to the test—and one after another, they will be exposed as incapable of offering real solutions. Through this process of struggle and disillusionment, the working class will eventually find their way back to Communism.
From the millions of workers who will be radicalized by the crisis, a new generation of revolutionary fighters will emerge. The Revolutionary Communist Party aims to forge these fighters into a disciplined vanguard, capable of leading the working class to victory in the revolutionary struggles ahead. Only through such a party, rooted in the bedrock of Marxist theory, can the working class achieve its historic mission: to overthrow capitalism and establish a socialist society.
We are thrilled to announce the second annual Atlantic Marxist School, which will be occurring over two days, October 11-12th. This event will be the regions' premier political school for building up this disciplined vanguard, and will feature five presentations on key topics vital to understanding the political landscape today, the role of the revolutionary party today, and how we as individuals can build that party:
- Capitalism Means War
- The State: Reform or Revolution?
- Capitalist Crisis and Today’s Economy
- Art and Revolution
- Marxism and Cosmology
Can't wait to build the party? Sign up to join, and don't forget to follow @novascotiacommunists @peicommunists and @capebretoncommunists on Instagram!
