People’s Commission Network
The People's Commission Network is a Montreal network which monitors and opposes the "national security agenda". The network is a space for individuals and groups who face oppression in the name of "national security" - such as indigenous people, immigrants, racialized communities, radical groups, social justice organizations, labour unions - and their allies, to form alliances, share information, and coordinate strategies to defend their full rights and dignity.
PASC works with the People's Commission Network because we believe that so-called national security serves as a pretext to criminalize social movements throughout the Americas.
