Dr. Alex Carreras, who is currently in #Canada at the invitation of the Canadian solidarity movement, delivered a lecture in #Ottawa on the damages caused by the blockade to #Cuba’s healthcare system, one of the most harmful and inhumane aspects of U.S. policy toward the island.

We see people living in severe poverty in every city and province of Canada. Maybe NBC should ask Mark Carney when he’s going to change our system.

🔹NBC: We saw people living in severe poverty in Havana. Is it time to take responsibility and change the Cuban system? Why not follow China or Vietnam which have embraced one-party rule while also embracing market economies?
🇨🇺 President Díaz-Canel: We study their models closely. But they were under sanctions for about a decade. Cuba has faced more than 60 years of blockade.
That is the difference. They were able to develop once restrictions eased. Cuba has not had that opportunity. We are an island 90 miles from the United States, under constant pressure.
When China and Vietnam began their development, they started from less favorable conditions than Cuba has today. So the real question is: lift the blockade and see what Cuba can do. If we have achieved this much under pressure, what could we achieve without it?
If Cuba is truly weak, as some claim, then why has the United States spent decades trying to isolate and undermine it? Why not let it fail on its own? The answer is clear.

The illegal U.S.-Israeli war on Iran must be stopped.
@MarkJCarney must stop providing diplomatic cover for murderous U.S. violations of sovereignty around the world while claiming to fight for sovereignty at home.

🇨🇺 Canada must ship oil to Cuba immediately and must work with other regional powers to break the siege, while also reopening flights and restoring tourism, so that Canadians can travel to Cuba and support its economy.
“We call on all trade unions and people’s organizations to build a broad movement that forces the Canadian government to stand against U.S. aggression and provide material support to Cuba. There are millions of Canadians with ties to Cuba who can be brought into the fight. The defence of Cuban sovereignty is the defence of sovereignty everywhere.”
Canada’s response to the US blockade on Cuba is a disgrace. @AnitaAnandMP has refused to condemn Trump's drastic escalation of economic genocide.
Action is needed now! Send oil, aid, strengthen trade, resume flights & break the siege.

HELP SEND URGENTLY NEEDED POWER SUPPLIES TO CUBA
The US government has tightened the blockade on Cuba, again, intentionally starving them of essential resources like oil for their electricity grid.

Quite criminal to have provoking a humanitarian crisis as your priority goal in foreign policy toward a country and its population. Seems medieval.

The U.S. campaign to block Cuba’s oil imports is deepening a humanitarian crisis on the island, the United Nations said, as Mexico and other countries shipped food and emergency supplies. on.wsj.com/4rLdHD9

Canada must oppose economic warfare against civilians and “reject Donald Trump’s cruel and reckless attempt to starve Cuba into submission by threatening economic sanctions against any country that feeds or fuels the island.”

This UCC facilitated the entry of Ukrainian Nazis into Canada after WWII. People like Yaroslav Hunka, who they suggested be honoured in parliament in 2023.
