This statement accurately describes the actions and practices of the Alberta Eugenics Board. They used a broad and discriminatory definition of "mental defective" in their efforts to control human reproduction and prevent the birth of what they deemed to be inferior or undesirable individuals. This included people with low IQs, those with certain medical conditions, individuals who had been institutionalized, and those who were deemed to have "immoral" lifestyles or behaviors. The board also targeted immigrants who were unable to speak English and young women who had been victims of rape or sexual assault. These policies and practices were deeply unethical and had long-lasting negative impacts on many individuals and communities.
