Cloning, bioterrorism, genetic engineering, not since the atom bomb has science had such potential to change the world. Canada, Mexico, and the United States have created a trilateral taskforce, The North American Biotechnology Advisory Commission, or NorBAC, to investigate questionable advances in the fields of biotechnology, bio-weaponry and nanotechnology.Under the charismatic leadership of Chief Scientist David Sandstrom and Executive Director Caroline Morrison, the Toronto-based organisation struggles to understand the political, legal, and personal underbrush in which new science has become entangled. |

Ths was a great series back in 2004. It’s even more relevant now. It fits in with our current concerns. Foreshadows them. It’s got a great cast, with a very young Ellen Page. It starts fast, and the tension ratchets up every episode. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
2nd season I learned about dopamine & the Jacobson’s Organ in mammals, which dovetailed nicely with what Dr. Gabor Mate had to report about it from scientific studies.
Gave me a real respect for Canadian TV… this’d never get made here in the US.
There was a website comparing how close the science shown in the show was to what the actual state of the science was.
