How Canada's LGBT Purge Got Started - Pt.2
Update: 2024-06-01
Description
This is a true-crime episode. Gripped with paranoia about Soviet spies using 'human weaknesses' to steal government secrets, Canada and its allies started hunting for and eliminating homosexuals from government employment. Investigative journalist Dean Beeby tells the incredible story about how the RCMP interrogated a retired Canadian ambassador to death for being gay; plus Patrizia Gentile, co-author of The Canadian War On Queers and a professor at Carleton University, gives you context for how the Government of Canada invented an imaginary enemy in "gay people".
