Radical social movements and countercultures challenged the conservatism of the preceding decade, rejected traditional forms of politics, and demanded an alternative based on the principles of social justice, individual freedom and an end to oppression on all fronts. Yet in Canada a unique political movement emerged which embraced these principles but proposed that New Left social movements – the student and anti-war movements, the women’s liberation movement and Canadian nationalists – could bring about radical political change not only through street protests and sit-ins, but also through participation in electoral politics.

  • Entryism in Theory, in Practice, and in Crisis: the Trotskyist Experience in New Brunswick, 1969-1973 by Patrick Webber
    Left History 14_1-b - Quark Final 12/4/09 1:06 PM Page 33 Entryism in Theory, in Practice, and in Crisis 33 Entryism in Theory, in Practice, and in Crisis: The Trotskyist Experience in New Brunswick, 1969-1973 By Patrick Webber Since the emergence of a distinct Trotskyist faction within the Communist move- ment by the mid-1930s, the policy of entryism has been a favourite tactic among Trotskyists, particularly in the West. Entryism would be a major factor in the cre- ation of the New Brunswick Waffle in 1970, the provincial wing of the Waffle movement that had emerged in the New Democratic Party (NDP) the previous year.1 Conflicting interpretations over the implementation of entryist theory, how- ever, would also help split and destroy the NB Waffle by the end of 1971 and inflict lethal damage on the nascent Trotskyist movement in New Brunswick. The ultimate impact of the crisis in entryism provoked by the Trotskyist experience in New Brunswick in 1970-71 was to raise major doubts about the theory and prac- tice of entryism among Canadian Trotskyists, culminating in the fracturing of the League for Socialist Action (LSA), Canada’s pre-eminent Trotskyist organization. The events that surrounded the NB Waffle therefore proved to be a turning point in the history of Trotskyist strategy in Canada. The strategy of entryism was first known as the “French Turn,” as it was first in France where Trotskyists debated and engaged in entryism. In June 1934, Trotsky himself declared that his followers in that country should seek to enter the French Socialist Party, a shift in policy that was provoked by the formation of a United Front.

  • “A Challenge and a Danger” Canada and the Cuban Missile Crisis
    “A Challenge and A Danger” Canada and the Cuban Missile Crisis By Caralee Daigle Hau A thesis submitted to the Graduate Program in History in conformity with the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada December 2011 Copyright © Caralee Daigle Hau 2011 Abstract President John F. Kennedy’s announcement, on Monday 22 October 1962, that there were offensive missiles on the island of Cuba began the public phase of what would be remembered as the Cuban missile crisis. This Cold War crisis had ramifications in many other countries than just the Soviet Union and the United States. Due to the danger involved in this nuclear confrontation, the entire globe was threatened. If either side lost control of negotiations, an atomic war could have broken out which would have decimated the planet. As the direct northern neighbors of the United States and partners in continental defence, Canadians experienced and understood the Cuban missile crisis in the context of larger issues. In many ways, Canadian and American reactions to the crisis were similar. Many citizens stocked up their pantries, read the newspapers, protested, or worried that the politicians would make a mistake and set off a war. However, this dissertation argues that English Canadians experienced the crisis on another level as well. In public debate and print sources, many debated what the crisis meant for Canadian-Cuban relations, Canadian-American relations and Canada’s place in the world. Examining these print and archival sources, this dissertation analyzes the contour of public debate during the crisis, uniting that debate with the actions of politicians.

  • Canadian Trotskyism in the 1960'S
    Canadian Trotskyism in the 1960’s 1 Introduction Canada is a remarkably stable country. Its institutions and traditions are derived primarily from England and from pre-revolutionary France. Admit- tedly there have been revolutions and armed conflict in Canadian history for example in 1837 and in the Riel rebellion, but these have been the ex- ception and not the rule. Usually consensus, compromise, and evolutionary change have been the norm. For one thing, at the time of Confederation the elites well understood that the alternative to compromise was American annexation. So English and French, Protestant and Catholic, broke bread, made agreements, and honoured them, however they may have felt about each other in private. And yet this is a document about a revolutionary movement in Canada. Revolutions are based on issues. What are the issues in Canadian politics today? I suggest that they can be presented as questions grouped as follows: Environment and health. - will Canada, or even mankind, be able to reply to future environmental challenges or do we face extinction? - can the medical system be made functional? Economics. 1 - can Canada overcome the unfairness in its economic relationship with the United States? - will Canadians continue to be prosperous in an evolving world? In par- ticular, will our children have something approaching the opportunities that were available to the post-war generation? Foreign and domestic policy. - what is one doing in Afghanistan, where is it going and how will it end? - can the national question in Qu´ebec be settled definitively and harmo- niously? - can the aboriginal peoples of Canada find a mode of life that is dignified and replies to their specificity? Justice and culture.

  • "Greetings of Ross Dowson to Congress of the International
    GREETINGS OF ROSS DOWSON TO CONGRESS OF THE INTERNATIONAL MARXIST GROUP [BRITAIN] (June 19- 20, 1971) It is both a pleasure and an honour to be able to extend the warmest greetings of the League for Socialist Action/La Ligue Socialiste Ouvrière and the Young Socialists/Ligue des Jeunes Socialistes, (the LJS being) the revolutionary socialist youth movement, independent of but in political solidarity with the LSA/LSO, Canadian section of the Fourth International, to this congress of the International Marxist Group, British section of the Fourth International. By rights this greeting should be delivered by and in the spirit of a revolutionist considerably younger than myself and by a woman – because that is where the most profound radicalisation is taking place in Canada and that is who is fusing itself to, “taking over” the Trotskyist movement which this year is celebrating 50 years of unbroken struggle to build the revolutionary vanguard proletarian party in Canada. You should know that the first Trotskyist in the Americas was the Canadian Maurice Spector who continued in 1925-26 under the banner of Trotsky what he and Jack MacDonald, founding secretary of the Canadian Communist Party, commenced under the banner of Lenin in 1921 – and that the Canadian Trotskyists were one of the five groups who first answered Trotsky’s call for a new, a Fourth International. The Canadian Trotskyists are playing the leading role in Bolshevising the radicalization that Canada’s youth, like their contemporaries across the globe, are undergoing. The Canadian Trotskyists are already in a highly favorable position to establish a continuing leadership of this radicalization process.

  • Dowson V. the Queen H
    COMMENT COMMENTAIRE Dowson v. The Queen H. Kopyto* When a Chief Superintendant of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police allegedly makes false and defamatory statements about a private citizen to a provincial Assistant Deputy Attorney-General, is he protected from liability for defamation by the doctrine of absolute privilege? To those familiar with absolute privilege as a defence to libel it will come as no small surprise that a recent unanimous decision of the Federal Court of Appeal answered that question affirmatively. It is arguable that in Dowson v. The Queen' the Court struck a major blow against those concerned with maintaining and extending the public accountability of government employees and police forces. In fact, the continued existence of liability for defamatory statements made by public servants in the course of their duty has been put into question by this decision. issue came before the Federal Court of Appeal on a motion The 2 from the Crown to dismiss the defamation action of Ross Dowson initiated against the federal Crown as a result of a statement made by R.C.M.P.

  • Ernest Tate on Cuba
    Tate — 1 (What follows is chapter fifteen from volume one of Ernest Tate’s memoir, “Revolutionary Activism in the 1950s and 1960s”, published by Resistance Books, London. In this chapter, using archival sources, he describes in detail how a small group of Canadian revolutionary socialists in the Socialist Educational League, S.E.L., later to become the League for Socialist Action, L.S.A., of which he was a leader, organized in 1960 to defend the early Cuban Revolution against a right-wing propaganda offensive inspired by American imperialism, designed to quarantine it from the Canadian people. Their campaign in defense of Cuba, he writes, was one of the most successful of its kind in the English-speaking world.) Verne Olson and the Cuban Revolution The Cuban Revolution, I have to admit, took our group by surprise. Sometimes, as I’ve discovered, even revolutionaries can be slow in getting off the mark when it comes to recognizing the real deal. I don’t remember us paying much attention to Cuba in the years before 1959, because in such matters we tended to take our lead from the S.W.P. There was not much in The Militant at first, as far as I can recall, and only an occasional item in the Toronto papers. Fidel Castro had been in Montreal in 1957 – and would return as Cuban Premier in 1959 -- but that hadn’t registered with us much but our interest, of course, was piqued with the appearance of Fidel Castro on television when Herbert Mathews, an editor of the New York Times, interviewed him in the Sierra Maestra mountains and we became aware for the first time of the strength of the guerilla struggle against the Batista dictatorship.
