Today, I’m honored to have back on the show for a second time: MK Ultra survivor and whistleblower, blogger, writer and published author, educator, selfless advocate, and one of my dear friends: Ann Diamond. 

A little bit about Ann in case you missed her first interview or are new here

Ann’s story begins in the 1950’s in Canada where she was sold into the MK Ultra projects as a child to prolific MK Ultra programmer Dr Donald Cameron of McGill University. She is an original whistleblower of our time and was was one of the first to publicly whistleblow MK Ultra and MK ULTRA in Canada, and has since given a voice to countless victims, and courage to countless survivors of government-sanctioned abuse of all kinds. 

In Ann’s words :

“The story of MKULTRA in Canada has never been properly told. It was a “pan-Canadian” phenomenon, not limited to Montreal and Dr Cameron. In the early sixties, much of what had been a McGill University program was gradually transferred to Toronto, specifically to York University in an emerging counter-cultural scene that became a breeding ground for many Fabian- and Tavistock-influenced movements and programs. Saskatchewan was another centre for MKULTRA mind control, about which very little has been written.

Unfortunately, Canada’s publishing industry is very much a product of that covert expansion of MKULTRA throughout Canada. Books like Anne Collins’ ‘The Sleep Room’ presented a partial account but failed to get at the roots (in British eugenics and Nazi psychiatry) or hint at the vastness of this program, which was secretly promoted at the highest levels of our establishment.” 

Today Ann is back to expand on her story. Today we will be diving deeper into McGill University, her family history, GATE and Ann’s experiences in gifted and talented programs, some of her memories of being in the projects, healing, family dynamics, and so much more. Ann is a light in the darkness and a beacon of hope and perseverance. Without voices like hers, the survivor movement undoubtedly wouldn’t be where it is today and we all owe Ann so much gratitude for her courage to step on the battlefield when so few others were speaking out and for continuing to be a voice for the voiceless. She is a beacon of hope, a wealth of knowledge, and a gift to this world. I ask you all to put away whatever you are doing and give Ann your full attention as we take a deeper look into her life and get the great honor of listening to and learning about her Cold War.
