“What Is To Be Done?” is the question a lot of us are asking ourselves. Capitalism seems inescapable, and its morbid symptoms — war, poverty, police terror, etc. — seem to worsen by the year. Many of us want to make a difference, but the protests don’t seem to be working, the major parties don’t represent our interests, and the left is too strategically disoriented and mired in bad habits to offer a real alternative.

whatistobedone.ca aims to change that. Its purpose is to amplify the voices of class-conscious workers and discuss the most important questions in the socialist movement, with the goal of moving toward a united revolutionary strategy. It’s named after Lenin’s famous pamphlet, which argued that a political newspaper should be a collective propagandizer and collective organizer, a tribune of the people that generalizes all manifestations of tyranny and oppression into a single picture of state violence and capitalist exploitation.

whatistobedone.ca is published by the Marxist Workers Group, a new socialist organization in Canada. If you’re interested in our project, we invite you to join the discussion in our Discord server or send us an email to collaborate with us. The budding radicalism in the Canadian working class needs a voice — let’s build it together!
