It was the winter of 1957, and Charles Tanny was in agony. A bad dental filling had triggered a severe case of trigeminal neuralgia (tri-gem-in-al), leaving the 42-year-old snowblower salesman and father of three with crippling facial pain which no doctor seemed able to relieve. Suspecting the problem might be psychological, doctors eventually referred Tanny to the Allen Memorial Institute, a stately former mansion and psychiatric research centre on the slopes of Montreal’s Mount Royal. His family hoped the institute would finally be able to ease his pain, allowing him to resume his life. But when Charles Tanny emerged three months later, they hardly recognized him. Once a warm, loving father and husband who doted on his wife and children, Tanny was now cold, distant, irritable, and often violent. Stranger still, he seemed to have forgotten nearly every aspect of his life, having no memory of his business and barely remembering his family members. As his daughter Julie - then only four years old - later recalled:
“He was like a shell of what he was before. He was just a completely different person.”
Unknown to his loved ones, Charles Tanny had been subjected to a series of bizarre medical procedures aimed at erasing, reprogramming, and ultimately controlling the human mind. Born of Cold War paranoia, these experiments, devised and conducted by an ambitious, but misguided, Canadian psychiatrist and secretly funded by the CIA, shattered the minds and lives of hundreds of unwitting patients and their family, leaving a legacy of pain and outrage that resonates to this day. This is the horrifying forgotten story of Dr. Ewen Cameron and the Montreal Experiments.
