  • 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.
