SURVIVORS OF SOCIALISM: Aime’s Story From Cuba


In this installment of SecondStreet.org’s “Survivors of Socialism” series, we sat down with Aime Despaigne – a Toronto resident who came to Canada from Cuba, and experienced social and economic hardships growing up under its communist regime.

Aime told us about the abhorrent human rights abuses Cuba has faced since the communist revolution of 1953, and provides a dire warning to those advocating for socialism in Canada.
