Canary Islands Now (Spanish: Ahora Canarias) is a left-wing and Canarian separatist electoral alliance founded in February 2019 in order to compete in the 2019 Spanish general election and the Canarian regional election of that same year. The alliance is formed by three parties: Canarian Nationalist Alternative (Spanish: Alternativa Nacionalista Canaria, ANC), National Congress of the Canaries (Spanish: Congreso Nacional de las Canarias; CNC) and the Unity of the People (Spanish: Unidad del Pueblo, UP).[1]

The parties involved in Ahora Canarias are also part of the Ahora Repúblicas alliance formed for the 2019 European Parliament election. Ahora Repúblicas is formed from progressive, left-wing nationalist and independentist parties from Catalonia, the Basque Country, Galicia, Asturias, Aragon and the Canary Islands.[2]

In the 2023 Canarian regional election and the 2023 general election Ahora Canarias is forming an alliance with the Communist Party of the Canarian Peoples.[3]
