In 1969, Watkins along with James Laxer, became leader of the Waffle, a group formed from members of the New Democratic Party (NDP) that wished to push the party further to the left and called for the nationalization of Canadian industries to take them out of the hands of American interests. By 1972, the Waffle was pushed out of the NDP, and went on to form its own party, the Movement for an Independent Socialist Canada, but by 1974 it had disbanded.

Files in this series document the activities of the Waffle at the local, provincial, and national level, including its Manifesto for an Independent Socialist Canada, policy statements, meeting minutes, and news clippings. Also included is correspondence with James Laxer following the publication of his report in 1984 which critiqued the NDP’s economic policies. Finally, the series includes writings and talks by Watkins’ reflecting on the Waffle and its legacy, and his nomination speech when he ran as the NDP candidate in the riding of Beaches-East York during the 2000 federal election.

Records documenting the life and career of Mel Watkins, Professor Emeritus of the Departments of Economics and Political Science at the University of Toronto. Though not a comprehensive account of his life and career, the records nevertheless document Watkins’ active involvement across many groups and organizations, in particular the federal government’s Task Force on the Structure of Canadian Industry and The Waffle and the New Democratic Party. Also includes numerous writings and talks about Canada’s economic history, Harold Innis, and the anti-nuclear movement.
