April 29, 2012 - Anonymous protest at Narconon trois-Rivieres. Large turnout for final raid at Narconon following the Quebec Ministry of Health forcing Scientology Rehab to close due to patient safety. Narconon failed to meet most of the certification criteria by employing unqualified staff, no doctor or medical staff on premises, and operating a detoxification rehab not recognized in scientific or medical literature. Health agency feared for patient health and welfare and demanded Narconon immediately relocate patients to other treatment centers. David Love and 20 Anonymous protesters from three cities were present at protest Sunday.

April 30, 2012 - - Following Narconon Trois-Rivieres being investigated and shut down by the Quebec Goverment Health agency, is Narconon Arrowhead and other Narconons in North America facing the same scrutiny and closures? There were two deaths at Narconon Arrowhead in past seven months. Knowing the high risks and patient danger, are the Governments and Health Departments not responsible for due diligence to ensure patient safety or is it a case of "Hear no Evil - See no Evel - Speak no Evil". Each and every Narconon operates exactly the same. According to the Church of Scientology, ABLE, and Narconon International, the techniques used in every Narconon, MUST NOT differ - nothing can be changed as per L. Ron Hubbard's policy. To do so in Narconon, is a High Crime. Thus, the dangers discovered at Narconon Trois-Rivieres, are exactly the same at all Narconons - their's is NOT an isolated incident as Narconon International will most probably claim.Clearly, with three deaths (two recently), at Narconon Arrowhead, there certainly should be grave concern.

TROIS-RIVIÈRES – Opponents of Narconon Trois-Rivières held a demonstration on Sunday afternoon outside the rehab center based on the teachings of the Church of Scientology.
About twenty people, most of them masked, arrived at the stroke of noon in front of the facility located on Parent Boulevard. Many of them were there as part of the Anonymous collective, a group known for its fight against Scientology.
The organizer of the gathering was David Edgar Love, a former patient and employee of Narconon who has been fighting against Narconon since he managed to leave in 2009.
"I saw the horrors that went on here and the people that had to be taken to hospital," he said, "so we want to inform the public about the dangerous methods used at Narconon."
Mr. Love, a native of British Columbia, is hoping that the Quebec government will set rules to prevent any form of abuse.
"This is a dangerous process and Quebec must have regulations to protect the safety of its citizens, as well as of Canadians and Americans, since many patients come from very far away," he added.
"Narconon boasts that it has a 70% success rate, but in fact it's an 80% failure rate. I know, because it was my job to compile figures about all this when I was an employee here."
Among the twenty-some demonstrators, few were natives of Trois-Rivières and most were from all across Quebec and even from Ottawa.
Victory
Despite the seriousness of the accusations that the group levels against Narconon, this annual protest had a festive air on Sunday because the Quebec government revoked the rehab center's certification on April 10. With their portable stereo in hand, the demonstrators did not hesitate to celebrate what they consider a victory.
"I am very happy with the government's decision," rejoiced Mr. Love. "We know there are still staff in the facility and that there is still some activity here, because we flew over the area on Saturday in an airplane that we rented. It's a way to celebrate."
The group paid tribute to those who are said to have died as a result of inappropriate treatment in the various Narconon centers around the world. A similar demonstration was also held at the same time in Oklahoma.

Some background of the Purification RD:
The Purification RD is the more marketable re-make of the original sweat program, which required everyone who had taken LSD to wear rubber suits and run around sweating out the "LSD crystals."
As far as I know, the first mention of LSD, by Hubbard, was in the 'Professional Auditors Bulletin' of 30 September 1955:
"I could tell you about long strings of psychotics run in on the Foundation and the Association, sent in to us by psychiatrists who then, using LSD and pain-drug-hypnosis, spun them and told everyone that Dianetics and Scientology drove people insane. I could tell you about the strange politics and ambitions of psychiatry, so well covered in the book Psychopolitics [Note: Hubbard's hoax Russian textbook, which he had just secretly authored and was not yet published] , and give you a proper riddle as to why we, a small group, the only ANGLO-SAXON DEVELOPMENT IN THE FIELD OF THE MIND AND SPIRIT [sic], have been subjected to so much attack and finance... But I am not telling you stories or being dramatic. I am inviting your cooperation in your own future security..."
As for dealing with those whose behavior became erratic or an embarrassment after Scientology processing, Hubbard wrote, in the same 'PAB':
"You'll find the family physician or psychiatrist was called in midway in processing... You'll find there is a vested interest somewhere in the insanity of the person. An so testify that you suspect it. We will have on hand lots of literature on LSD..."
Sixteen years later, Hubbard would write a similar policy, although this one doesn't mention LSD and is more to the point. It has the simple title 'Confidential', and is dated 29 June 1971:
"Policy is that we assign any case or upset in Scientology to past damage and interference with the person by medicine or psychiatry. They were sent into us after medicine or psychiatry had already destroyed them. We cannot be blamed for psychiatric or medical failures."
The last mention of LSD, of which I'm aware, is during 1977, and then a follow up in 1978:
In February 1977 came the HCOB 'Jokers and Degraders', followed by the March 1977 HCOB, 'The Gambler' (Here's a rare photo of LRH doing research into gambling)
, followed in May 1977 by the HCOB 'LSD, Years after they have come off of', which introduced the "Sweat program."
The formal "Sweat program" was further described in the HCOB 'LSD and the Sweat program' of February 1978.
From the May 1977 'LSD, Years after they have come off of' (two months before the July 1977 FBI raids):
"Apparently they have become some sort of vegetable or zombie to a greater or lesser degree."
To place this in historical context, it had only been one year earlier, from his temporary residence in Washington DC, in April 1976, that Hubbard personally oversaw part 2 of the (1972) 'Operation Dynamite' - then renamed 'Operation Freak Out' - covert Operation to "terminately handle" author Paulette Cooper, by having her set up/framed and, "sent to prison or a mental institution." It didn't matter that Cooper's book was, by then, out of print, 'Operation Dynamite' had come so close to "working," that Hubbard couldn't resist a second try.
That's what Hubbard was thinking about at the time (along with the other covert Ops he was supervising), that, and LSD having made people - often the most productive and creative people in Scientology - into "vegetables or zombies to a greater or lesser degree."
Eventually, the "Sweat Program" became the more marketable "Purification Rundown," with the "Purif" meant for everyone.
Remember the hype for the Purif? "Only Scientologists who've done the Purif will survive World War III."
It was promoted along with the book, 'All About Radiation', which was "written by a nuclear physicist and a medical doctor," with Hubbard being the nuclear physicist.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U1-6I-d4jK0
'All About Radiation' was first published in 1957.
It was from this sea of fraud and kookiness that the Purification Rundown appeared.

And herein lies the danger. I could post an eight page Autopsy Report
from a Coroner who stated post Puif 50% Liver destroyed! I could Post
a Video of a suffering woman's statement on TV - - just before she died
of Liver failure. I could Post my own Liver Ulta-Sound Scan and other
Liver test results which indicate stage 2-3 Liver Fibrosis and other issues,
- - - and a ton of other evidence dox fron Patients who endured unsupervised,
unqualified medical tests (none!!!) while in the Purif - - but I won't ,,,,,...., YET!
For now, OSA will just have to wait until the subpoena issuer-investigators track
down the Rats who are scurrying about trying to avoid being Served.
Lawyers will be addressing the Court as soon as this week to have a Court Order
issued.
Having the Health Ministry shut down Narconon was but a small victory compared
to what is coming VERY SOON.
Most of the damage caused in the Purif is unseen and not felt, but damage there is; especially for Narconon victims who have compromised liver conditions - - and most Narconon patients do have compromised livers due to alcohol and drug abuse. It's NOT frickn' Rocket Science - it's pseudoscience, concocted by a raving lunatic, madman-QUACK!

I met a distinguished critic of Narconon is San Francisco. She told me
that those doing this possibly had compromised livers and perhaps other body parts due to long term drug abuse. Thus a possible danger for large doses of niacin.
Met two auditors for Narconon who told me most on the program took it as an easy way out compared to jail and were not interested in leaving drugs or reforming.
And the government pays $30,000 per hit?
Did it twice, its excellent IMO.
But needs excellent medical supervision. I didn't. But others do.
So I applaud your intensive work. You are a hero!!!!

Whoever told you this, didn't know what he was talking about. Only two out of 76 patients at NN TR were there instead of chosing jail. The following is from Page 46-47 of my New Book (draft only text - not edited yet):
The Narconon fees of $30,000 were ALL paid by the patients or Sponsors. NONE were paid by our government. None.
Thank you for your kind words

The two auditors I refer to worked at Narconon at an earlier time, maybe as long ago as 20 years and in the US. Possibly LA.
They told me that most on the programme were doing it in Lieu of jail time.
Its possible that I dubbed in that the government paid for the service. Or
maybe they told me that. Maybe others here know how its gone in the US.
If the courts oeder someone to a narconon programme who pays?

The USA Court system is different than in Canada and other countries for sure and I have read where some jurisdictions do give a person a choice at "Sentencing" to either go to Rehab or serve "Time." As the USA officials are becoming more aware of Narconon (Criminon), as being scientology entity, they are more reluctant these days.
If the person is just in custody awaiting trial, the courts have no authority because the culprit is presumed innocent until proven guilty. However, their lawyer may approach the DA and cut a "Guilty Plea" deal, agreeing to go to rehab and this being part of sentencing - thereby being a Court Order per se. If the person quits or is kicked out of rehab, the alternative is serving a jail sentence.
20 years agao is much different in how it's done today, but the USA courts still do have these plea bargains is some areas.
The governments are now very reluctant to pay for Rehabs these days, citing liability risks should there be any harm caused?
It could be a moot issue in the near future if there are no more Narconons in the USA - - which I believe will be the case - - just a matter of time

At least here is California, a person choosing rehab over jail time may be limited to those really ready to try to get off drugs or who have family pressures to go to rehab. This is because the crowded jails mean even less time served for non-violent offenses. Because of this, by time a person gets through trial, the remaining sentence to be served can be less than the length of time for a rehab program.
My BIL, and many of those he associated with, decided against rehab, for these reasons. It is likely that people choosing rehab because they are ready may be more likely to kick such a tough addiction. I wish rehab was more successful; this would lessen the number of people falling for the false promises of NarCONon.

My experience also - the cult uses it to find those with cash for the program and enough after for the Bridge.
Very few are "charity cases" or paid for by anyone but themselves or their loved ones.
Most of those at the Narconons I've been associated with never had to resort to crime to pay for their drugs.

No judge would "order" anyone to go to Narconon, but perhaps seek rehabilitation. In the US, this could be paid for by insurance coverage, and employers are required to allow one to go into a facility for drug or alcohol issues.
Narconon's clients stay in the sauna for up to five hours at temperatures of up to 80C (170F), ten times longer than the recommended maximum. This poses major risks for health; such a lengthy period of extreme heat can easily lead to hyperthermia, heat exhaustion, salt or potassium depletion, heat stroke and breathing difficulties, which could prove highly dangerous for asthma sufferers. Indeed, Hubbard's book Clear Body Clear Mind, upon which the programme is based and which the supervisors are required to study, includes a list of actions to be taken in the case of overheating, salt or potassium depletion or heat stroke.
Vitamin "bombs" risk poisoning their users. The State of Oklahoma's examiners reported in 1991 that "The use of high amounts of vitamins and minerals in the amounts described administered by Narconon can be potentially dangerous to the patients of Narconon according to the more credible medical evidence ..." Many of the dosages set by Hubbard far exceed the recommended maximum intakes set by the United States Institute of Medicine's Food and Nutrition Board (FNB). Typically, Hubbard's dosages have not been amended for decades, despite the advance of medical and scientific knowledge; the Scientologists are required (by Hubbard's own instructions) not to alter his doctrines, even where they conflict with proven science.
The Food and Nutrition Board is responsible for setting recommended dietary allowances (RDAs) and upper limits (ULs), the maximum level of daily nutrient intake that is likely to pose no risk of adverse effects. In almost every single case, Hubbard recommends dosages well above the safe limits, in some cases as much as 142 times more than the toxic level.
The side effects of such huge overdoses range from liver damage, hair loss, brain swelling and nausea up to fatal heart and respiratory failure. The following table shows the levels recommended by Hubbard and the FNB, and the proven consequences of dosages beyond the FNB's upper limits.
Dosages
Hubbard: 100mg-5,000mg
RDA: 14 mg*
Upper limit: 35 mg*
(*daily dosage, healthy adult males & females)
Overdoses of Niacin can be extremely dangerous:
At doses of over 50mg, niacin (nicotinic acid) may cause transient itching, flushing, tingling, or headache. Niacinamide in the form that occurs naturally in the body (nicotinamide) is free of these effects. Large doses of niacin may cause nausea and may aggravate a peptic ulcer. Side effects may be reduced by taking the drug on a full stomach. At doses of over 2g daily (which have been used to treat hyperlipidaemia) there is a risk of gout, liver damage, and high blood sugar levels, leading to extreme thirst.
John A. Henry, British Medical Association New Guide to Medicines and Drugs, 2000 edition
Let's look at the other vitamin overdoses given by Hubbard's "tech" at Narconon, or in the "Purif" at scientology locations.
Vit. A: Excessive intake of vitamin A is toxic, at dosages of around 20-25,000 IU* daily. The symptoms include brain swelling, weakened bones, conjunctivitis, cirrhosis of the liver, hair loss, diarrhea, insomnia and fever.
(*Hubbard requires 5,000-50,000 daily.)
Vit. C: Gastrointestinal disturbances, kidney stones, excess iron absorption.
Vit. D: Disturbance of calcium metabolism, producing hypercalcaemia - i.e. dangerously raised blood calcium concentrations leading to raised blood pressure, the possibility of brain damage, and kidney damage.
Vit. E: May include hemorrhagic toxicity.
Rather than bore you further with the individual break down, in the Mineral category, your Hubbard Purif/Narconon program will require Mineral overdoses which cause:
Kidney stones, hyperglycemia, milk alkali syndrome, renal insufficiency, constipation, palpitations, reduced iron and zinc absorption. Gastrointestinal distress, liver and kidney damage, destruction of red blood cells (haemolytic anemia). Gastrointestinal distress, significantly raised risk of heart disease, diabetes and cancer. With Magnesium, adverse effects rare, but can occur in people with impaired kidney functions. Symptoms include nausea, vomiting, dizziness, muscle weakness. Very large increases can cause fatal respiratory or heart failure. Elevated blood concentration and neurotoxicity, producing Parkinson's-like symptoms. Individuals with cirrhosis (liver damage), such as alcoholics, may not be able to properly excrete manganese. Manganese supplements can also cause severe hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) in diabetics. With Zinc; affects metabolism of iron and copper, leading to nausea, vomiting, fever.
