IMPORTANT: 
  
The students are used without their knowledge !
(Please accompany with Myth of McGill
University).   It is very scary. 

McGill is the Canada's "greatest"  university of
all ?   Think again. 
Please do not support malicious human and
animal testing in our society !   Ph.Ds are
responsible ?  Ph.Ds are honest ?   Question again
! 
   

              Military funded McGill LSD trial
  
Eight volunteered in '60s 
[Comment:  That's just 30 years ago.   And it's about after 30 years
of W.W.II as well.  It is fairly new. It's about
                                      the time when students in
graduate program [now] were born.]

OTTAWA - The Canadian military funded LSD experiment on students and
musicians in Montreal in
the early 1960s.  The tests were part of a larger military-research
program to explore the effects of powerful
mind-altering drugs at the height of the Cold War.      Newly
uncovered records show Canada's Defence
Research Board sponsored LSD tests at McGill University and studied
even more powerful hallucinogens in
secret experiments in rural Alberta.    In the 1964 McGill tests,
researchers injected volunteers - six students
and two professional musicians - with LSD and showed them ink drawings
to determine the effects on
visual perception.     At the Defence Research Establishment Suffield
in Ralston, Alberta., scientists administered
doses of LSD and other psychotropic drugs to laboratory rats to
explore the potential of the substances to
control human behaviour.  The Alberta researchers obtained the most
potent of the hallucinogens from the
American Army Chemical Centre at Edgewood Arsenal in Maryland, which
collaborated with the U.S. Central
Intelligence Agency in a race against the East Bloc to develop
mind-control drugs.

   Dr. Herbert Madill conducted animal studies with phamacological
agents (by Denis Cahill, Ottawa
                                        Citizen)
      Notice his laughing face. Notice his attitude for animal
experiments including humans.
  
"It was after the Korean War, when mind control and this type of thing
was thought to be very important," said
Dr. Herbert (Dinny) Madill, who conducted animal studies with
pharmacological agents at Suffield, in an
interview.   "We researched this family of drugs, and certainly LSD
was one."   The documents, obtained by
Southam News and the Ottawa Citizen, are believed to be the first
public indication the Canadian military tested
brain-altering drugs, albeit on a much smaller scale than the
Americans.    U.S. author Allen Hornblum, whose
recent book, Acres of Skin, extensively documents CIA-funded
experiments on inmates at a
Pennsylvania prison, said he's not surprised by the Canadian
military's interest in hallucinogens. "The CIA
spend a lot of years and spent a lot of dollars to develop some sort
of magic bullet, some potion they could give
a soldier, or anyone else, who would then do their bidding."   The
1959 novel The Manchurian Candidate, by
Richard Condon, popularized the notion of millitary-sponsored mind
control.      The best-seller, later a movie
starring Frank Sinatra, featured a communist plot to brainwash a
captured American soldier in Manchuria,
programming him to assassinate the U.S. president.    Little did
audiences know, life imitated art as U.S.
scientists clandestinely explored these very concepts.  "Very simply,"
Hornblum said, "they were trying
to create the Manchurian Candidate."    Hornblum's book describes US
military experiments, some
involving prisoners, to investigate the effects of potent chemicals
such as LSD, BZ, atropine and scopolamine,
many of them supplied by the Edgewood Arsenal facility.   The goal: to
find a sure means of chemically
controlling the mind.  Madill, who worked at Suffield between 1960 and
1973, said he and his Canadian
colleagues had regular meetings with their U.S. counterparts at
Edgewood Arsenal.    But he had no knowledge
of CIA interest in the hallucinogenic work.     Still, Madill said,
the intelligence agency might well have monitored
the Suffield studies.  "I'm sure if (the CIA) did their work properly,
they probably did."    The test subjects used
by Madill and his colleagues came from a colony of rats, mice and
guinea pigs at Suffield. Madill said he
never gave halucinogens to humans and shudders today at the suggestion
of such experimentation [But how did
we know whatever he said was a truth ?  Of course he was not going to
say he gave hallucinogen even though he
did].     However, a 1965 report on the McGill study in the
Berlin-based journal Psychopharmacologia said the
inquiry was funded in part by a Defence Research Board grant.     The
study, The Effect of Lysergic Acid
Diethylamide (LSD-25) on Perception With Stabilized Images, was
conducted by researchers affilicated with
McGill's psychology department.    The LSD was injected by two doctors
from the university's
Allan Memorial Institute.    The insitute is known as the site of
controversial brainwashing
studies carried out by Dr. Ewen Cameron in the late 1950s and early
1960s.    The [human and animal]
experiments, funded by a covert CIA front organization, involved LSD,
electoshock and sensory
deprivation.     Cameron was never able to persuade the Defence
Research Board to finance his work.  
Until now, there was no hint the Canadian military sponsored research
into psychedelic drugs.   The newly
uncovered McGill study involved two separate experiments.    In one
procedure, two male and two
female students participated in a series of six tests over several
weeks.    They strapped on a viewfinder and
were injected with the LSD-25, then shown a number of geometric
figures.   Their ability to recognize certain
patterns while under the influence of the drug was plotted on charts
and graphs.   In a similar procedure, four
more subjects, including two "professional musicians," were given the
drug and shown more drawings.   [Think of
you were participating in the research like this.   I will inject a
shot to you !]         "It was found that 'flicks,' the
rapid, jerky motions that compensate for the slow drift of the eye,
were twice as frequent," the researchers
noted.   Even though it was helping finance the studies nowhere in the
official account of the experiment does the
military say what it hoped to learn.    At that time, LSD research was
quite common.   It was the subject of more
than 1,000 studies and was considered a possible treatment for
alcoholism and schizophrenia.   Later studies cast
doubt on the initial optimism, however.   In 1969, the drug was
outlawed in Canada.    Military researchers in the
United States experimented with a host of other powerful
mind-controlling substances in programs that continued
into the early 1970s [it was about the year when the students in
undergraduate program (now) were born].   In
Alberta, many of these chemicals were pumped into rodents at Suffield.
Years earlier, during W.W.II, Suffield
scientists played a vital role in the Allied effort to develop and
test biological and chemical weapons [and
yet we say Ph.Ds are responsible, honest and helpful.  Give us a
break].   In the postwar era, Suffield
researchers continued the close association with their superpower
neighbour to the south.   A handful of
Canadian scientists, including Madill, explored the effects of
so-called incapacitating agents on rodents.    In a
November 1968 experiment by one of Madill's associates, rats were
injected with compounds including
LSD and BZ, an even more powerful hallucinogen that could induce
week-long highs and maniacal
behaviour.   A report on the experiment says the drugs "rapidly
affected the animals."   The psychedelics were
supplied by Edgewood Arsenal, while another drug was used in the
tests, BOL-148, came from the Montreal
branch of Sandoz, the Swiss company that invented LSD [Ph.Ds , who are
working at company like this, are
causing a lot more problems than the university, high school or
elementary school drop-outs].     "Currently, there
are at least two compounds, BZ and LSD-25, which have been considered
as candidates for military use, " says
the report [Is military protecting us or using us ?].    "They are
extremely potent and have a profound effect on
man."   Madill said the research was intended to help understand how
the chemicals worked so the millitary
could devise antidotes against them [you are right], in keeping with
the defensive nature of postwar work at
Suffield.   Now living in St.Catharines, Ont., the 65 year-old retiree
wonders whether it was naive to believe
drugs could be used to bend ot dictate the human will.    "At the
height of the Cold War, a lot of this stuff was
'classified' research, " Madill said [or whatever].   "I can look back
upon it and say I spent a very strange life."
[and that's how Ph.Ds live in our society].
