Communism in Quebec

Communism in Quebec is a social and political movement that aims to establish a communist regime in Quebec. Communism rejects the liberal capitalist order in favor of a Commons – common means of production and of exchange, the abolishment of social classes, the state, and private property.

The Quebec communist movement was repressed and marginalized by the Canadian and Quebec governments (see Section 98 of the Criminal Code of Canada, the Padlock Law and the War Measures Act). The only Canadian communist federal MP, Fred Rose was elected in Quebec from 1943-1947.
