ACP British Columbia

November 11th, Remembrance Day. “Lest we forget.” Poppies, banners, memorials — is that all we can do? The American Communist Party stands for the wholesale abolition of the military-industrial complex and the immediate and unequivocal halt to all foreign military aid.

Against Canada's collaboration in the imperialist war against Iran.

As a result of the criminal attack of the United States on Venezuela, ACP British Columbia spent hours postering and raising awareness for the cause of the Venezuelan people. ACP British Columbia will unite with all progressive forces to oppose this act of imperialism!

The BC chapter of the American Communist Party held a commemorative event on the 90th anniversary of the On-to-Ottawa Trek. We will continue to honour the tradition of Canadian and North American labour! Watch here⬇️

The British Columbia chapter of the American Communist Party has conducted its first investigation sessions as part of a campaign aimed at educating truckers about unionization and misclassification. During the hours of investigation, ACP-BC members found that truckers are facing unprecedented challenges and difficulties in the face of a worsening economy. Across British Columbia, truckers face stagnating rates and wages, long hours, misclassification as ‘contractors’, debts, unpaid waiting times, high operating costs, rising insurance rates, and countless other issues. ACP-BC will continue its investigations and organizing sessions with the aim of promoting unionization, education, and the politicization of issues involving truckers.

Today @ACP_BritishCol remembers the many attempts of the Founding Fathers to include Canada in the anti-colonial revolution of 1776. The American Revolution was never intended to be limited to the Thirteen Colonies. Beginning in 1774 and leading up to 1776, Congress sent three letters to Canada, asking Canadians to join the United Colonies of North America. In 1775, Canadian Patriots sided with Richard Montgomery’s forces as Montreal and much of Canada was liberated from British control. These forces included Canadian Patriot militiamen who joined forces with the liberating American militias and participated in the Battle of Quebec City. Although British forces recaptured Canada, countless Canadian Patriots continued fighting with the Continental Army in the 1st and 2nd Canadian Regiments until the conclusion of the war.

The British Columbia chapter of the American Communist Party conducted a social investigation in False Creek, Vancouver, examining the impacts of gentrification on this historically industrial area. Once a thriving hub of sawmills, foundries, and shipbuilding from the late 1800s to the mid-20th century, False Creek underwent dramatic deindustrialization starting in the 1960s, culminating in the Expo 86 redevelopment that transformed it into a high-density residential and commercial zone. The investigation highlighted the displacement of working-class communities, the loss of affordable housing, and the polarization of wealth, as condominiums and luxury developments replaced industrial sites and low-income housing.

In collaboration with @acp_ontario, the British Columbia chapter of the American Communist Party interviewed striking postal workers during their strike which spanned several weeks in late 2024. After interviewing several workers and union members, we are publishing this video with the intention of covering their demands, grievances, and concerns which were largely ignored by the mainstream media.
