Oak Ridge, MKULTRA type of facility in Ontario, Canada

Yeah, I went through 41 pages of photos; including policy redacted manuals to guns in cakes (some nice art work too).

Too bad about what you said re collaboration.
 
Oak Ridge is hiding a lot still.
I like how they twisted up the story of Asylum Hill Cemetery.. Reality is it would have just been plowed under if I haden't found it and wrote about it.
Who makes numbered grave stones ??
 
It was just this past week that I finished your book during short camping trip in the mountains (The Psychopath Machine: A Story of Resistance and Survival) and so it has been of mind and it also brought back recollections. The recollections were mostly geographical as places you had been (Ontario and Vancouver) which synced with my sights and memories. There was also descriptions from what you saw in Central and South America: which attests to some of the historical background from other published works people have read - the horror of those times and places done by the usual suspects.

Other recollections were connected via my partner who grew up in and around the Sudbury area (with family near Oak Ridge geographically) and talked about the Italian families who ran the towns: this was also a point it seemed in reference to Sault Ste. Marie as you had explained. And then there were the 'Paperclip' inductees into Canada, and who knows were that goes...

The book also went in some unexpected directions from what was envisioned at the outset based on some subjects (hence Central and South America). There was High Strangeness (there are many posts on the Forum concerning these things, including as a subject from the Forums owners work) - I'm thinking of the Vancouver apartment adjacent to Hy's (which I was very close to this spring without knowing that story and also back in 1978) and some other obvious places and situations.

One thing you brought up was Dr. Colin Ross, and as recalled, it seemed a passing reference (he perhaps offered testimony in the Class Action or at least there was rebuttal against him). Was curious about this. Dr. Ross was featured in a SOTT interview 'Behind the Headlines: Dr Colin Ross Interview - CIA Doctors and the Psychiatry Scam' back in 2013 (and he had been interviewed elsewhere).

It goes without direct reference that obviously you had an inside look at psychopathy: mostly the unsuccessful types, yet not exclusively, and wondered if you had ever read the work by Andrew M. Lobaczewski 'Political Ponerology: A Science of Evil Applied for Political Purposes' very much featured on this Forum and on SOTT? If not, it might be something to consider or not to consider - just mentioning it. Many of the reference in the Class Action documents bring up people like Robert Hare (UBC), and Hervey Cleckley. who are also brought up often here.

Anyway, that is some story you told of your situations(s), places, times, actions and people and why your wrote the book - glad you did.

Keep Well!



 
I haven't been here for a long time.
I hope I can bring this conversation back to life.
There have been some new developments.. Some I can't talk about just yet because of contract agreements but there will be a press release soon.
After publishing my book I was contacted by a lot of people with information about Oak Ridge.
The most disturbing thing .. There was a parallel program at a nearby women's institution.
All the same torture with exotic drugs, Naked encounters, restraints made from seat belt material and pad locks.
here is the most disturbing part..
It was set up by at least four Oak Ridge patients I have so far documented.
All four were violent sexual predators.. convicted of rape.
They were sent to this hospital to live on the women's ward and run the program.
I have adoption papers from one pregnancy that resulted.
There is more...

Knowing what you wrote, good grief.

Poked around a little and there are a number of institutions listed, generally east of Toronto including up at Thunder Bay. Out in Saskatchewan, much earlier at Weyburn Mental Hospital, "IN THE 1950s, Saskatchewan—particularly the small southeastern community of Weyburn—was a hotbed of hallucinogenic drug research."
 
The hospital was St Thomas.. abandoned now.
Here are some spooky pictures.
Urban Exploring The Abandoned St Thomas Psychiatric Hospital

I have a written account from one of the Oak Ridge patients who ran the program. He called it BDSM.
This guy is still locked up as a dangerous offender.
They gave these four rapists free reign over the women's ward..
They could have these women bound up with seat belt material and drugged any time they wanted and for any excuse. Much of the oak Ridge "therapy" was naked and filmed... This would be pornography.
Who got the videos?
Remember, Some of these women may have been underage.. same as the men in Oak Ridge.
The Oak Ridge class action law suit has been in the courts for 20 years.. still not settled.
You have to wonder why this institution was never mentioned and above all why no women are in this suit.
 
Another of these men got one of the women pregnant .. They actually started a relationship inside the hospital. They wanted to keep the baby and have a life together.
I have hand written letters between them.
They separated them, sent the man to Kingston prison and forced the woman to have the baby adopted.. I have the papers .
Then they illegally transferred this guy to a prison in America.
It was the first year of the US Canada prisoner exchange treaty. Canada broke the treaty.
I have sworn evidence and a letter from a US Magistrate confirming this.
And a cassette tape dated 1979 ..sworn testimony in front of this magistrate
He was then transferred to Ft. Mccoy in Wisconsin to use the skills acquired at Oak Ridge and St. Thomas .
This was 1980 the Mariel boatlift and Cuban refugees.
Many of those were mental patients kicked out of Cuba by Castro.
All this was a CIA operation..
 
It's two years and a half since the last post. In the meantime, Steve (hope he's doing well) posted on his blog 2 documents from the court and his old email exchange with ET Barter (plus a paper on coronavirus).

Legal English is Greek to me, so I'd rather post quotes than try to summarize it by my own.

The first one is "Barker v Barker-trial judgment", Supreme Court of Justice, Ontario, over 300 pp., presenting cases and verdict (part one of the trial). Released June 25, 2020

From intro:

The action began its legal life in 2000 as a proposed class action, but has since been reconstituted as an individual action by the 28 named Plaintiffs. In a 2003 ruling that denied certification, Cullity J. identified the three programs at which the claim is specifically aimed: a mind-altering drug regime called Defence Disruptive Therapy (“DDT”), an isolation cell for group encounters, including hallucinogenic drug encounters, called the Total Encounter Capsule (the “Capsule”), and a strict physical disciplinary regime called the Motivation, Attitude, Participation Program (“MAPP”): Joanisse v Barker, 2003 [...] In 2018, the Court of Appeal reversed a summary judgment that had been granted to the Plaintiffs and remitted this action for trial: Barker v Barker, 2018 ONCA 255. The Court indicated that the matter was to proceed by “trial or summary trial as deemed appropriate to the Regional Senior Judge for the assignment of a trial judge ...

In an effort to expedite matters, the trial has proceeded as a hybrid summary and full trial. Each of the Plaintiffs has testified and been fully cross-examined in court. In addition, each has submitted an affidavit and/or agreed statement of fact which has served as part of their evidence in chief. While the initial plan for the trial was to have the affidavits and agreed statements entirely replace examination-in-chief for each of the Plaintiffs, it quickly became evident that testifying as to their own personal experience of Oak Ridge and the STU programs was an important part of the trial process that could not be entirely replicated by written evidence. Accordingly, each of the Plaintiffs had an opportunity to testify at some length in chief before being cross-examined in full.

Next is history and description of the programs followed by plaintiffs’ histories and cases presented one by one.
From the Summary:

The Doctors and/or the Crown, in various combinations, are liable to each of the Plaintiffs for having caused them varying degrees of harm by breaching their fiduciary duties and by perpetrating assault and battery. In the case of the Crown, it is liable to each of the Plaintiffs for these claims on a direct and vicarious liability basis. Where either or both of the Doctors are liable, the Crown is also liable for knowingly assisting them in perpetrating assault and battery.

Second PDF: Part 2, "Barker v Barker - damages trial judgment" released: Feb. 8, 2021, 164 pp.
Summary of the part 1, case by case discussion and decision on damages awarded anything between $1K to $100-200K to almost $3M in one case. Two examples:

Mr. Bonner is awarded $200,000 in general damages as against Dr. Barker and the Crown.
As with Mr. Bethune, the imperative to denounce the reprehensible treatment of a young patient by a doctor and a government-run hospital is strong. Mr. Bonner is awarded $100,000 in punitive damages, divided 50% as against Dr. Barker and 50% as against the Crown.

Mr. McMann is awarded general damages in the total amount of $1,000,000as against Drs. Barker and Maier and the Crown
Mr. McMann is awarded punitive damages in the amount of $500,000, divided 50% as against Dr. Maier and 50% as against the Crown.
Mr. McMann is awarded $385,000 in damages for lost income as against Drs. Barker and Maier and the Crown.

The email exchange of 1996 between Steve and ET Barker is its own story. Think about psycho doc playing cat a mouse game with his victim. There is one comment to that post from a former victim of Oak Ridge. Excerpt:

I was sent there at the age of 16 from the Ontario Training school for boys. That was called Hillcrest that was in Guelph Ontario. I am appalled at the utter contempt Myself and others were treated with by the lawyers representing the doctors and the crown. At 62 living off a very miniscule disability pension. I was not and still am not a psychopath. Barker sure said I was though. ... I sure was pissed when I seen that now after two justices have ruled in Our favor that They are once again going to try and appeal. They are not defense for the doctor and province. They are accomplices who want to keep revictimizing those of Us who went through that hell. Also Barker is now suffering dementia and will not even know what may or may not happen. But knowing how evil he is I have to wonder if the dementia is real or just something he paid to use as an excuse to be free of his liability.

I know about "should" and "shouldn't" but going to say it anyway: It should have been a criminal case and those "doctors" should be rotting in prison since long ago. Not naïve enough though to dream about those deep behind it sharing the same fate.

Curious if Steve writes the other book he planned to about the trial and coverup.

That's what was reported last January:


CLASS ACTION LAUNCHED ON BEHALF OF PATIENTS OF THE ST. THOMAS PSYCHIATRIC HOSPITAL
Jan 26, 2022

TORONTO, Jan. 26, 2022 /CNW/ - Rochon Genova LLP has commenced a proposed class action against the Ontario government and the former medical and unit directors of the former St. Thomas Psychiatric Hospital ("St. Thomas") relating to their alleged systemic abuses of involuntary patients between the years 1976 and 1988.

St. Thomas was a government operated psychiatric facility located in St. Thomas, Ontario. The claim alleges that, from 1976 to 1988, involuntary patients detained in the medium secure forensic unit of St. Thomas were subjected to an abusive and punitive patient-run program with no medical merit.

The proposed class action, filed with the Ontario Superior Court of Justice, alleges that this "treatment" program, run with the government of Ontario's knowledge for over a decade, was initially developed and implemented by patients detained in the maximum security Oak Ridge Division of the Mental Health Centre Penetanguishene, including those with histories of sexual violence.

As part of this program, male patients were transferred from Oak Ridge to St. Thomas and placed in charge of the control, treatment, and punishment of female patients. These female patients included teenagers such as the proposed representative plaintiff, who was seventeen years old at the time of her admission at St. Thomas.

The claim alleges that Ontario and the former medical and unit directors of St. Thomas who oversaw the program were systemically negligent and breached their fiduciary duties and the patients' Charter rights by implementing this unethical, harmful and medically meritless patient-run program.

The claims have not yet been proven in court. For information about this proposed class action please contact [...].
