I just notice that a lot of radical leftists are not enthusiastic about electoralism at the moment (and perhaps rightly so), or still subscribe to a degree to entryism. Would love to here your counter-arguments

That's why I'm building in the missing space in the compass: anarcho - socialism provides anarchocapitalists an alternative to voting CPC. My former party, The Pirate Party of Canada, was such an option -- I have never left The Pirate Party.

Well, that's good for a start. But what I really want is a concise reason, which I am sure an experienced comrade can provide, to tell the average person, inc many possible socialist-curious folks, why we should vote for the Communist Party. With the understanding that while in all likelihood, the party will not form the next government of Canada. Essentially, what will a Communist voice provide in the House of Commons, and how can that relate to broader leftist strategies in the short and long-term. A tall order. Take your time. No time limits, thankfully.

What? I am not a communist. I am merely a socialist eg I support WORKER COOPERATIVES -- if the NDP became a WORKER COOPERATIVE it would be more anti-corporate!

Would you consider adding something on Palestine? I feel it is of immense importance.
