About this listen
They saved lives, but they didn’t always leave the dead alone.
In the First World War, the Canadian Army Medical Corps stood between life and death, pulling wounded men from the battlefield and fighting to keep them alive against impossible odds.
But behind that story lies a lesser-known truth.
Drawing on the work of Dr. Tim Cook, this episode explores the hidden side of Canada’s medical war, where the dead were sometimes used in the name of science, training, and survival.
It’s a story of innovation, necessity… and uncomfortable questions about dignity, consent, and the true cost of saving lives.
