The US Army used used a carcinogenic chemical -- zinc cadmium sulphide -- to conduct a series of simulated germ warfare tests over Winnipeg in 1953. The Pentagon lied about the tests to the mayor, saying that they were testing a chemical fog over the city, which would protect Winnipeg in the event of a nuclear attack.

In 1953, the US government asked the Canadian government if it could test a chemical over the city of Winnipeg. The US military sprayed this carcinogenic chemical in a 1,000%-attenuated form, which they said would be so watered down that nobody would get very sick. However, if people came to clinics with a sniffle, a sore throat or ringing

in their ears, the researchers would be able to determine what percentage would have developed cancer if the chemical had been used at full strength.

Robert Russo, writing for the Toronto Star (May 15,

1997), reported on the Pentagon's admission that in 1953 it had obtained permission from the Canadian government to fly over the city of Winnipeg and spray out this chemical - which sifted down on kids going to school, housewives hanging out their laundry and people going to work.

US Army planes and trucks released the chemical

36 times between July and August 1953. The Pentagon got its statistics, which indicated that if the chemical released had been full strength, approximately a third of the population

of Winnipeg would have developed cancers over the

next five years.
