Foreign policy

The CPC-ML believes Canada should leave the U.S.-led organizations NATO and NORAD and stop collaborating with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. It believes Canada should avoid going to war or interfering in the affairs of other countries.[1]

Immigration

The CPC-ML believes Canada should end deportations of undocumented workers and migrant workers should be able to have permanent residency in Canada.[1]

Indigenous rights

The CPC-ML demands repealing the Indian Act of 1876 and paying reparations to colonized peoples. It believes that diplomatic relations should be established with and between indigenous nations.[1]
