WHEREAS the Canadian Communist League (Marxist-Leninist) has undertaken a boycott of the Second Conference of Canadian Marxist-Leninists on the path of revolution in Canada and certain groups have followed it in its boycott: the Regina Marxist-Leninist Collective and the ex-Vancouver Socialist Group;
WHEREAS this boycott has in fact hindered the task of identifying the persisting differences over the principal questions of political line which continue to confront the Marxist-Leninist movement and the Canadian masses at this stage of party-building: specifically, the identification of the principal contradiction in our country, the composition of the camp of the revolution and the camp of the reaction, the nature of Canadian society and the tasks of the Canadian revolution;
WHEREAS this boycott does not conform to the principles of Marxism-Leninism which teach us that a sincere desire for unity must be the guiding spirit for all groups and individuals in the struggle to demarcate and to make the proletarian line triumph and that it therefore constitutes a sectarian action;
BE IT RESOLVED that the Canadian Communist League (Marxist-Leninist), and all the other groups implicated in its boycott of this conference be censured.
The conference calls on all Marxist-Leninists, all conscious workers and all progressive groups and individuals in Canada to resolutely struggle against all manifestations of sectarianism and to undertake the struggle for the unify of the Marxist-Leninist movement in our country with enthusiasm and with the aim of once again giving the Canadian proletariat the indispensible weapon needed for its definitive liberation from the claws of capitalism and imperialism: its communist Marxist-Leninist Party.
IN STRUGGLE!
