Victims of CIA-linked Montreal brainwashing experiments cleared to sue in class action


A Quebec Superior Court judge has authorized a class-action lawsuit brought forward by victims of brainwashing experiments conducted at the Allan Memorial Institute in Montreal — experiments infamous for their affiliation with the CIA-funded MK-Ultra program. The lawsuit names the Royal Victoria Hospital, McGill University and the Government of Canada as defendants. It alleges that the government funded, and the Royal Victoria Hospital and McGill University enabled, "depatterning treatments" that violated the patients' bodies and minds. The patients who submitted the class-action request claimed that the Cold War-era experiments, conducted by Dr. Ewen Cameron at the Allan Memorial Institute and known as the Montreal Experiments, were carried out without their consent or even their knowledge.
Judge Dominique Poulin said in her decision, issued Thursday, that two of the three applicants for a class action met the criteria to bring forward the lawsuit. She authorized the two patients, Julie Tanny and Lana Ponting, to represent all persons who underwent depatterning treatments at the Allan Memorial Institute between 1948 and 1964 and their successors, family members and dependents.
