WARNING: Communism’s Rise in Canada Echoes Venezuela’s Fall
Fleeing Venezuela’s collapse, Alessandra Polga warns Canada of communism’s growing grip on western civilization.
Venezuelan PR specialist Alessandra Polga, who fled communism, warns about the increasing appeal of socialism and communism to young Canadians and the West.
A 2023 Fraser Institute survey showed 50% of Canadian youth (18-24) favor socialism, a trend Polga views with alarm. Speaking at the Canada Strong and Free event, she shared her distressing experiences and apprehension about Canada's changing ideology, cautioning against the poverty and oppression inherent in such systems.
“After being kidnapped and escaping, I came to Canada to find a safe place for my family,” Polga recounted. Yet, she’s alarmed by “the increasing tendency of some political influence here in Canada that brings me some déjà vu about how everything started in Venezuela.”
She argues that communist and socialist ideologies “never work,” pointing to Venezuela’s economic collapse and over 2,000 political prisoners. “They want everyone equal, but equal down,” she said. “It’s not freedom. They fool everyone.”

Polga is particularly troubled by the romanticization of these ideologies on Canadian campuses.
“They have a fantasy point of view,” she noted, citing the case of María Oropeza, jailed in Venezuela for an Instagram post. “You are not free. If you go against the government, you will confront the consequences.”
She warns that Canada risks similar control, with media and narratives increasingly manipulated. “It’s happening recently here in Canada, and I don’t understand why they don’t talk with the victims.”
Blaming academia, Polga stated, “They insert their activists as teachers and professors and start the machine of brainwashing the new generation.” She urges parents to counter this by instilling civic values at home. “Common sense has to start first at home,” she emphasized, cautioning against blind trust in schools.
Polga’s message is clear: Canada must heed the lessons of Venezuela’s collapse to protect its freedoms.

David Noel commented 2025-05-16 18:47:32 -0400I agree with her on the fact that communism is on the rise in Canada. The Communist regime has already infiltrated the Liberal party and have been very successful in removing civil rights & liberties from our democracy. They will continue to use their political influence and power to undermine & destroy all that our forefathers fought & died for during the last century. Brainwashing and propaganda is rampant in our educational institutions and parents should be more concerned & aware of what is being taught in our schools. -

Everybody but the top elitists are impoverished. Venezuela was once rich and prosperous. Look at what socialism did to that once rich country!

Robert Pariseau commented 2025-05-12 09:31:50 -0400Does she not understand what happened to the Freedom Convoy?
Does she not understand what’s going on with all of these ridiculous vote recounts?
Does she not understand the pull the mainstream media still have?
We’ve heard it all before. Exact same message, exact same delivery, every single time.
Time for some new arguments.
