- Dr. Donald Ewen Cameron ran MKUltra Subproject 68 at the Allan Memorial Institute of McGill University in Montreal from 1957 to 1964, funded by the CIA through a front organization.
- His 'psychic driving' put patients into drug-induced sleep for weeks while a tape loop repeated a single statement hundreds of thousands of times, followed by electroshock at thirty to forty times normal power.
- Patients admitted for anxiety and postpartum depression, including Velma Orlikow, were left with amnesia and lost abilities like reading; in 1992 Canada compensated 77 victims.
- Cameron was paid $69,000 for the experiments; the CIA funneled the money through a front called the Society for the Investigation of Human Ecology, and Cameron supposedly never knew its true source.

Transcript
A Montreal hospital erased people's minds. On purpose. With your government's money.
Doctor Ewen Cameron ran the Allan Memorial Institute. The most famous psychiatrist alive. His theory: to heal the mind, first destroy it.
He called it psychic driving. Patients drugged asleep for weeks. A tape loop under the pillow. One sentence, hundreds of thousands of times. Then electroshock at forty times normal power.
Velma Orlikow came in with postpartum depression. A young mother. She left unable to read. They took her mind and called it medicine.
The CIA paid for it all. Through a front company. Subproject sixty eight. Buried until nineteen seventy five.
In nineteen ninety two, Canada paid seventy seven victims for minds that never came back. Stitch this if you would have trusted the doctor. Follow for a new true nightmare every day. Sleep with the lights on, if you can.
Dramatized for the telling. The facts above are documented; the narration is the Draugr’s retelling of them.
Wear the nightmare
The Dreaded wear the mark.
