THE Founding Convention of the New Party will be held in Ottawa at t·he end o,f July, 1961. It will be one of the mo,st important meetin·gs ever to be held in Canada and much will depend on t·he de:cisions taken there. · Already the Tories, Liberals and Social Crediters are preparing to fi:ght and defeat the New. Party in the coming federal election. The Li1b·erals have held a federal convention in which they tro·tted out a whole bagful of tricks designed to hea1d o.ff 'Suppo·rt for the New Party. T·he Tories held their natio;nal rally a few wee,ks later and John Diefen­ baker de·clared, in an attempt to· falsify the issues and scare a 1way potential supporters 0 1f the New Party, that ''so·cialism versus freel enterprise'' will be the issue in the election. The Social Credit government of B.C. has passed a vicious piece of legislation prohibiting unions · from ,.. making contri1butions to the Nevi Party on penalty of losing the check-off.

Since 1976, the CCLH has published Labour/Le travail, Canada’s pre-eminent scholarly journal of labour stud- ies. It also publishes books, now in conjunction with AU Press, that focus on the history of Canada’s working people and their organizations. The emphasis in this series is on materials that are accessible to labour audiences as well as university audi- ences rather than simply on scholarly studies in the labour area. This includes documentary collections, oral histories, auto biographies, bio graphies, and provincial and local labour movement histories with a popular bent.

  • Class Struggle, the Communist Party and The
    CLASS STRUGGLE, THE COMMUNIST PARTY, AND THE POPULAR FRONT IN CANADA, 1935-1939 A Thesis Submitted to the Committee on Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the Faculty of Arts and Science TRENT UNIVERSITY Peterborough, Ontario, Canada © Copyright by Martin Schoots-McAlpine, 2016 Canadian and Indigenous Studies M.A. Graduate Program January 2017 ABSTRACT Class Struggle, The Communist Party, and the Popular Front in Canada, 1935-1939 Martin Schoots-McAlpine This thesis is an attempt to provide a critical history of the Communist Party of Canada (CPC) during the Popular Front era, roughly November 1935 to September 1939. This study contains a detailed examination of the various stages of the Popular Front in Canada (the united front, the height of the Popular Front, and the Democratic front), with special attention paid to the CPC’s activities in: the youth movement, the labour movement, the unemployed movement, the peace movement, and the anti-fascist movement. From this I conclude that the implementation of the Popular Front, the transformation of the CPC from a revolutionary party to a bourgeois party, was not a smooth process, but instead was punctuated and resisted by elements within the CPC in what can be considered a process of class struggle internal to the CPC itself. Keywords: Communist Party of Canada, communism, Soviet Union, labour, Popular Front, Great Depression, socialism, Canada ii Acknowledgements I would first like to express my gratitude to my supervisor, Dr. Bryan Palmer, for his patience and assistance in writing this thesis. I benefitted greatly from his expertise in the field.
