To You Our Selected Witnesses TO YOU OUR SELECTED WITNESSES Below over 250 ELECTRONIC TORTURE, ABUSE AND EXPERIMENTATION, AND ORGANISED STALKING, CASES from CHINA & ASIA-PACIFIC FOR YOU TO WITNESS, RECORD AND OPPOSE Some of our ELECTRONIC TORTURE, ABUSE AND EXPERIMENTATION CASES detail the most extreme and totalitarian violations of human rights in human history, including the most horrendous psychological tortures, rapes, sexual abuse, physical assaults, surgical mutilations, ‘mind control’, and other mental and physical mutilations – see http://www.4shared.com/dir/21674443/75538860/sharing.html and COMPILACION DE TESTIMONIOS EN ESPAÑOL:- http://rudy2.wordpress.com/ There are MANY, MANY others, all over the world, who are being subjected to similar torture and abuse. YOU HAVE BEEN CHOSEN TO BE “A SELECTED WITNESS” to these extreme and monstrous CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY - indescribably terrible in themselves - coupled with the ORWELLIAN secrecy and denial of any support at all that we are experiencing, makes them even more horrendous and monstrous. We have contacted most Governments, Security/Intelligence Agencies, Religious Organisations, International Organizations, Human Rights Organizations, Universities, Scientific and other Institutions, and the International Media all over the world - over and over and over again – and have had our appeals for assistance, protection and/or publicity almost completely ignored and/or suppressed. Some TARGETED INDIVIDUALS have been attempting to gain assistance, protection and/or publicity about these crimes since the 1990s - and even earlier - this extends as far back into the history of illegal ‘scientific and medical’ testing and experimentation as MKULTRA, COINTELPRO and the DUPLESSIS ORPHANS - and further. We are still collecting CASE SUMMARIES from TARGETED INDIVIDUALS all over the world, and we have also advised them to send them to you - “THE SELECTED WITNESSES” - TO WITNESS, RECORD AND OPPOSE so that :- A. We can be sure that as many people as possible know about these horrendous crimes. B. We can be sure that these AUTHORITIES and ORGANISATIONS are either trying to uphold the rule of National, International and Human Rights Law, and that we will, sooner or later, be protected by these laws. C. Or that we can be sure these AUTHORITIES and ORGANISATIONS are complicit and/or acquiescent to these CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY and that National, International and Human Rights Law no longer apply - in which case our task will be to get the rule of these laws restored. Later these records should become an information source - such as the INTERNATIONAL TRACING OFFICE set up to record the fates and whereabouts of Jews (and others?) after WW11. The information collected can then be used by the appropriate people for LEGAL, MEDICAL, WELFARE, HISTORICAL etc. records. As well as being illegal the crimes being committed against us are contrary to the Principles and Values of all the major religions and ethical systems - so we will also be demonstrating to all of these people and AUTHORITIES AND ORGANISATIONS the huge disconnect between their professed Principles and Values and the reality. We will be showing their monstrous Doublespeak Doublethink Doubledo ignorance, stupidity and/or hypocrisy. It is our responsibility to record and alert the world to these horrendous crimes - and the extreme danger that these technologies, powers and tendencies pose to human rights, liberty, democracy, privacy and the mental and physical freedom, individuality, integrity, health and growth of all people – in all their “infinite?” richness, degrees, dimensions, aspects, qualities and diversity! Make no mistake these are the most horrendous totalitarian weapons and crimes imaginable and the people and organizations using them are mass-murdering conspirators pursuing totalitarian fundamentalist schemes. 1 Beware of the brain and gene phrenologists/determinists/reductionists, and those who seek to control and reduce the range, quality and diversity of human thoughts, imaginations, senses, sensibilities, moods, attitudes, speech and psycho-physiologies – the would-be socio-economic, cultural AND PSYCHOLOGICAL/INTELLECTUAL/ PHYSIOLOGICAL monopolists, monoculturalists, police and prosecutors who are already literally and physically actively at work amongst us!! Both monstrously and criminally, and also far more insidiously. And beware of this dumbing-down, disenfranchisement, degradation and monoculturalisation caused by the paucity and total degradation of public information and discourse, and the subsequent and consequent degradation and “Fahrenheit 451-ing” of previously autonomous cultures, professions, fields of human endeavour, memories, languages and intelligences. It is no exaggeration to say our cases are as horrendous and urgent as people fleeing Nazi or Pol Pot concentration camps – specifically Dr Mengele-type torturers and butchers.

  • Quebec to Give Duplessis Orphans a Public Apology Campbell Clark, National Post December 28, 1998
    Quebec to Give Duplessis Orphans a Public Apology Campbell Clark, National Post December 28, 1998 Largest Youth Abuse Case: 3,000 survivors hope for financial compensation The Quebec government is to issue an apology over the treatment of the so-called Duplessis Orphans, who were interned in mental institutions in the 1930s, ’40s and ’50s after being abandoned by their parents, the National Post has learned. Those representing the estimated 3,000 surviving orphans hope the public apology by Lucien Bouchard, the Quebec premier, will be a first step in obtaining financial compensation similar to that offered to victims of abuse at the Mount Cashel orphanage in Newfoundland, and others who suffered similar treatment at institutions in other provinces. Hundreds of the Duplessis Orphans, so-named because Maurice Duplessis, the former Quebec premier, governed the province during most of the years of their internment, have reported harsh treatment and physical and sexual abuse in institutions run by Catholic religious orders. The allegations involved forced confinement, beatings, molestation and even rape. The episode is believed to be the largest case of institution- based youth abuse in Canadian history. Quebec’s College of Physicians has also, for the first time, agreed to express the medical profession’s “regrets,” and to launch a program to re-evaluate the cases of orphans who were falsely diagnosed as mentally retarded or mentally ill. The public apologies, expected to be made in January or February, will also involve correcting, where necessary, erroneous civil records, including birth certificates that may have wrongly listed the orphans’ parents as unknown.

    FROM THE DOOR OF THE ORPHANAGE TO THE DOOR OF THE SENATE MY ROOTS ARE STILL AND ALWAYS SHROUDED IN ANONYMITY by Diane Poitras MARCH 22, 2018 SENATE STUDY ON THE ADOPTION MANDATE IN POSTWAR CANADA FROM THE DOOR OF THE ORPHANAGE TO THE DOOR OF THE SENATE, MY ROOTS ARE STILL AND ALWAYS SHROUDED IN ANONYMITY The personal account of a postwar adoptee Diane Poitras, legal adoptive name Jeanne d’Arc Blondin, the fictitious name given to me when I was baptized at the Crèche de la Réparation orphanage in Pointe-aux-Trembles “Born to unknown parents” is my birth name under Quebec’s law on the confidentiality of adoption records. Believed born to a Polish immigrant who was pregnant when she arrived in Canada as a refugee, probably in 1948 or 1949 Hello, Thank you very much for inviting me here. My name is Diane Poitras. I am speaking to you today from the heart as an old orphan. To mark this occasion, I am wearing my orphan number, 6076, which I was given the day after I was born at the Crèche de la Réparation orphanage, where I was baptized with the fictitious name of Jeanne d’Arc Blondin. I was confined for 139 days in that sad, gloomy orphanage, where every second felt like a century, especially when I was crying from boredom. I wanted to die because I was so alone. One day, I smiled as sweetly as I knew how at two strangers who wanted to adopt a little girl. It was love at first sight.

Carriere claimed that the nuns sold babies from $40 to $5,000 to poor people and $3,000 to $10,000 (equivalent to $8,000-$25,000 today) to rich people. The Sisters of Mercy alone made $5 million from this business, selling 50,000 babies. Carriere revealed tactics used to disguise the origins of the babies and how they were delivered to their adoptive parents. Since the nuns were in charge of most maternity wards, and Quebec’s birth registry was run by religious authorities, it was simple to change the babies’ name and religion to that of the adoptive parents. Even when they didn’t know who would be adopting the chil- dren, they still changed the name to make it impossible to trace the babies’ origins. The Sisters of Mercy had an internal system: to light. all babies born in January of an even year received the same name beginning with an A, in February, a name beginning with B, and “Sisters of Mercy” Baby so on.
