 foundations of a communist youth league
The communist youth movement -Young Communist League or Spartacus Youth- is a broad organization of all the youth, young workers or students, who accept the principles and aims of the organization and are ready to participate in its work.

 Young Communist League of Canada
This new move to change the age of consent is a veiled account to outlaw youth sexuality.
The Conservatives, along with reactionary and quasi-fascist organizations like the Heritage Front and the Christian Heritage Party, would like to see an end to sex education in schools, the imposition of their right-wing religious views about sexuality on all of society, an end to gay marriage and even bans on homosexuality and abortion.
The same reactionaries who throw rhetoric about STI’s, teen pregnancy etc. in the mix with their moralistic jabber, oppose proper sex education in school, thus proving that their concern is not the well being of youth, only the pursuit of their own political goals driven by their anti-people ideologies.
