Is Canada a socialist country?
Canada is a capitalist country because the Capitalist class owns the economy, and they control the state. When the Royal Bank and the Bank of Montreal are owned by the people, when the factories are run by the workers, when the state is in the hands of the working people, when unemployment is eliminated, Canada will be socialist. Spokespeople for big business fear socialism, and sometimes call Canada a socialist country to deliberately confuse people. It is true that we have public services, because working people fought for them, but public education and health care do not make Canada a socialist country.
