Substack blogger and former MP Charlie Angus has called on Canadians to stand in solidarity with Cuba as it faces the US blockade.
“Canadians have deep ties to the people of Cuba, and we can’t sit on the sidelines at this time,” he writes. “We need to be pressuring our political leaders to side with a hemispheric neighbour. If Trump can do this to Cuba, he will think that he can do the same to us.”
Among the organizations working to get supplies to Cuba, he recommends supporting Containers 4 Cuba, allied with the Canadian Network on Cuba and endorsed by the Ontario Federation of Labour.
