The plaintiffs allege their family members were subjected to psychiatric experimentation that reduced them in some cases to a childlike state
Family members of patients allegedly brainwashed decades ago at a Montreal psychiatric hospital are afraid they’re running out of time to get compensation because the federal government and McGill University have filed motions to dismiss their lawsuit.
“She was no longer the person that she would have been, because there was no way that I could ever ask her about any kind of memories,” he said of his mother, who he saw about once a year until her death in the 1980s. The government and hospitals argue the claims are prescribed – that they should have been filed years or even decades ago when the facts surrounding the case first came to light.
Stein, in a phone interview, says the motion to dismiss is a delaying tactic from government lawyers. “They feel that my clients will not proceed further, that they’ll lose confidence and just not agree to continue further with the proceedings,” he said.
