The Communist League in Canada was founded as the "Revolutionary Workers League/Ligue Ouvrière Révolutionnaire" (RWL) in 1977 as the result of a merger of the League for Socialist Action (LSA), the Revolutionary Marxist Group (RMG) and the Groupe Marxiste Revolutionaire. In the late 1980s, the RWL left the FI to become part of the new Pathfinder tendency spearheaded by the SWP. It changed its name to the Communist League in 1990. The new group ceased publication of the English Socialist Voice in favour of selling The Militant, published in New York City by the SWP.

  • 共产主义联盟（英语：Communist League）是加拿大的一个共产主义政党。该党成立于1977年，由三个托派组织合并而成，当时取名为革命工人联盟。革命工人联盟一开始是第四国际的支部。后来，该党追随美国社会主义工人党放弃托洛茨基主义，转而支持菲德尔·卡斯特罗领导的古巴共产党。1980年代末，该党退出第四国际，转而加入探路者倾向。1990年，该党改名为共产主义联盟。 (zh)

  • The Communist League in Canada was founded as the "Revolutionary Workers League/Ligue Ouvrière Révolutionnaire" (RWL) in 1977 as the result of a merger of the League for Socialist Action (LSA), the Revolutionary Marxist Group (RMG) and the Groupe Marxiste Revolutionaire. Originally a Trotskyist party, the RWL was the Canadian section of the Fourth International (FI). The group followed the US Socialist Workers Party's (SWP) trajectory away from Trotskyism in favour of a view of Fidel Castro's Cuba as the vanguard of world revolution. The RWL purged members who did not support the new orientation, many of whom went on to form Socialist Challenge and Gauche Socialiste. In the late 1980s, the RWL left the FI to become part of the new Pathfinder tendency spearheaded by the SWP. It changed its name to the Communist League in 1990. The new group ceased publication of the English Socialist Voice in favour of selling The Militant, published in New York City by the SWP. Michel Prairie is the group's general secretary and primary spokesperson. In early 2004, John Riddell, the RWL's former national secretary, his partner Suzanne Weiss, and Roger Annis left the CL over a dispute regarding protests against the 2003 invasion of Iraq, and started , taking the name of the RWL's old newspaper. The CL operates a Pathfinder Bookstore in Montreal. (en)
