FARMERS!

Fight For
Your Future

In an attractively designed
pamphlet Farmers! Fight for your
Future (35 cents) the Commu-
nist Party of Canada presents its

answer to monopoly’s and agri-
business’ policy of forcing Can-
ada’s farmers off the land. Writ-
ten by William Beeching, this
pamphlet outlines an analysis of
the present farm crisis and an
action program to meet. the
danger.

Confronting the farmer today
is the policy of the Trudeau ad-
ministration — to expand and
deepen monopoly control over
agriculture at the farmer’s ex-
pense. These proposals, set
forth in a 475-page book called
Agriculture in the Seventies,
will drive a million people off
the land, create ghost towns,
eliminate jobs for Canadian
agricultural workers, and allow
wider penetration of the Cana-
dian home market by U.S. agri-
culture and monopoly.

Canadian farmers can do
something about it. One of the
steps to a viable farm policy is
found in a_ section entitled
‘Where the Markets Are’: “A
hungry world will readily ab-
sorb our surpluses if we break
down the present artificial and
monopoly-created barriers. Po-
tential markets outside of Can-
ada are so large as to dwarf the
Canadian home market. Experts
estimate that most of the expan-
sion of possible markets will
take place outside of Canada...

“The potential trade with so-
cialist countries is enormous...
It is this possibility of expanded
trade relations with socialist
countries that holds the bright
promise for future prosperity
for Canada.”

To win this and other new
goals for agriculture demands
unity; not only unity among the

farmers themselves, but unity
between the workers and farm-
ers against monopoly which ex-
ploits them both. “Workers buy
food and fibre from the farmers.
The better off the workers, the
more they buy. Farmers buy
goods that the workers manu-
facture, which means more jobs
in the cities. Therefore it is in
the mutual interests of both
workers and farmers to support
each other’s demands for mar-
kets, wages, prices and agricul-
tural diversification.”

The final section of the pam-
phlet points out the need for
independent, mass and political
action of the farmers in a coali-
tion of workers, farmers, intel-
lectuals and other people which
can win new gains for Canada’s
working people. A concise and
clear program proposed by the
Communist Party follows.
Among the major points are:

@ an aggressive campaign by
all levels of government to wid-
en export markets for Canadian
agriculture;

@ emergency measures to keep
Canadian farmers on the land
during this crisis through the
provision of cash, and the dec-
laration of a moratorium on debt
combined with tax relief mea-
sures;

e nationalize the farm machin-
ery, fertilizer, and feed mono-
polies.

This pamphlet, Farmers! Fight
for your Future is a valuable ad-
dition to the advancement of the
perspective for a realistic agri-
cultural policy for Canada, and
a must for every farmer.

Farmers! Fight for your Fut-
ure is published on behalf of the
Communist Party of Canada by
Progress Books and is available
at all Communist Party offices
and from. progressive book
stores. (M.S.)

Dear Comrades

The Central Committee of the
Romanian Communist Party con-
veys to you and to all Canadian
Communists warm fraternal
greetings on the 50th Anniversary
of the Communist Party of Can-
ada.

During five decades of exist-
ence, Canadian communists have
made an important contribution
to the struggle of the working
class and Canadian democratic
forces, defending the vital inter-
ests of the working people
against imperialist aggressive
plans, fulfilling the Canadian
peoples’ aspirations for peace
and social progress. In expressing
our confidence that the fraternal
relations between our parties,
based on Marxist-Leninist princi-
ples and proletarian internation-
alism, independence, equality of
rights and mutual respect will
further develop to the benefit of
strengthening friendship between
our parties and peoples and all
anti-imperialist forces, we wish
you further successes in your
activities devoted to the triumph
of the cause of peace, democracy
and socialism.

Dear Comrades,

The Central Committee of the
Mongolian Peoples-Revolutionary
Party extends fraternal greetings
and hearty congratulations to the
Central Committee of the Com-
munist Party of Canada, to all
Canadian Communists, on the
50th Anniversary of the founding
of your party.

The Communist Party of Can-
ada, the Marxist-Leninist van-
guard of the Canadian working
class, during the past 50 years
has travelled a difficult, but glor-
ious path of struggle and victor-
ies for the sake of the happiness
of the Canadian working people,
for the sake of the triumph of the
great cause of socialism. Your
party, being a most important
force in the political life of Can-
ada, together with other progres-
sive forces in the country deci-
sively defends the vital interests
of the working class and all work-
ing people of Canada, for its
complete independence, against
the rule of the capitalist mono-
polies and American imperialism.

The Communist Party of Can-
ada consistently struggles for the
consolidation of the unity and co-
hesion of the international Com-
munist and Workers’ movement,

_ on the basis of Marxist-Leninist

principles and proletarian inter-
nationalism, for peace, demo-
cracy and socialism, against im-
perialist reaction»

Dear Comrades,

We wish to address to you our
fraternal greetings on the occa-
sion of the 50th Anniversary of
the Communist Party of Canada.

We pay homage to your half
century of struggle at the head
of the Canadian working class,
particularly your present actions
against monopoly in the indus-
trial and rural sectors. These ac-
tions are being waged in the
context of the general struggle
for the real independence, eco-
nomic and diplomatic, of Canada
from the USA.

Your actions against American
imperialism are part of the world
battle carried on by all revolu-
tionary and progressive forces,
the socialist countries, the people
of the national liberation move-
ments, and the working class
around the world.

The Arab people are waging
great struggles against American
neo-colonialism, above all for the
national liberation of the Pales-
tinian people and other occupied
Arab lands. The Moroccan people
participate in these struggles and
thus the combats of our two peo-
ples are united and contribute to
the strengthening of our ties of
friendship and brotherhood.

We extend to you, dear com-
trades, our warmest fraternal
greetings.

of the Party of Liberation

Dear Comrades,

We salute the 50th Anniversary
of the founding of the Commun-
ist Party of Canada and take this
occasion to once again renew

, our ties of friendship, and to wésh

you the best of success in the
coming struggle against interna-
tional monopoly capital and for
the defense of the interests of
the people.

The 50 years since the working
class of Canada created its or-
ganized vanguard have seen an
unyielding combat in many areas
which we, Venezuelan commun-
ists, value highly. In valiantly de-
fending the interests of English
and French Canadian workers
and the right to self-determina-
its confrontation with
monopoly, both on the political
and trade union fronts, the Com-
munist Party of Canada, working
under difficult conditions of mis-
understanding and_ intolerance,
has been able to honorably fulfil
