Ontario NDP youth pass resolution condemning Canadian imperialist interference in Latin America

Hands Off Venezuela supporters attended last month's convention of the youth wing of the Ontario NDP in Ottawa. While there, HOV managed to get the following resolution approved by delegates, which now becomes part of ONDY policy.

Hands Off Venezuela supporters attended last month's convention of the youth wing of the Ontario NDP in Ottawa. While there, HOV managed to get the following resolution approved by delegates, which now becomes part of ONDY policy:

Latin America

Because Canadian banks and financiers have invested heavily in Latin America and, as such, have a large economic interest in the continent;

Because the Canadian state, as a tool of the Canadian owning class, is playing a reactionary and undemocratic role in the continent;

We Demand an end to illegal funnelling of money to the Venezuelan opposition through the Canadian embassy;

We Demand an end to Canadian military, financial, and political support for the dictatorial, repressive and illegitimate junta regime in Honduras; as well as the resignation of Minister Peter Kent for his blatant support for the coup that ousted the democratically elected President Manuel Zelaya;

We Demand the abrogation of the proposed free trade agreement with Columbia, with its dismal record of human rights abuses and its repression and persecution of trade unionists.
