May Day is traditionally a day on which the revolutionary working class not only reaffirms its internationalism and its historic mission to overthrow capitalism, but also reflects soberly on the victories and failures of the past. On this first May Day of the new century, Canadians can take pride in the fact that a new spirit of unity is emerging within the Canadian revolutionary movement, with the working class playing an increasingly important role. If it is successful, this movement for unity of the revolutionary, anti-capitalist forces could be the key to the victory of the emancipation of the working class and the elimination of all forms of exploitation and oppression. However, for it to succeed the working class must take up this movement as its own.
Victory is possible only by placing the revolutionary politics of the working class in command.
