Ordered not to speak about harm reduction?!? |
 |
|
David Bratzer is an active member of the Victoria Police Department,a Law Enforcement Against Prohibition (LEAP)member and speaker, and a CSSDP advisory board member. He was scheduled to speak at an event on harm reduction sponsored by the City of Victoria, until management went behind his back and told the city he wouldn't attend, and then told David directly he was not to participate in the event. More information is available in the press releases below.
This is a direct attack on David's free speech, and a direct threat to all officers thinking of speaking out againstour ineffective and unjust drug policies. Please spread this story and show your support for officers like David who courageously work towards sensible drug policy reform in Canada and around the world.
LEAP has formed a petition you can sign here: http://www.CopsSayLegalizeDrugs.com/freespeech

Movie Night and Q&A, with the producer! |
|
|
Canadian Students for Sensible Drug Policy are hosting a movie night fund-raiser at York University! Pay-what-you-can (suggested donation, $5) and join us, and Producer Adam Scorgie, on a documented trip through Canada's most socially acceptable illegal activity.
Ever wonder what British Columbia's most profitable industries are? Logging? Fishing? Tourism? Ever think to include marijuana? If you haven't, think again. No longer a hobby for the stereotypical hippie culture of the ‘60s, BC's illegal marijuana trade industry has evolved into an unstoppable business giant, dubbed by those involved as 'The Union'. Commanding upwards of $7 billion Canadian annually, The Union's roots stretch far and wide. With up to 85% of all 'BC Bud' being exported to the United States, the BC marijuana trade has become an international issue with consequences that extend far beyond our borders. When record profits are to be made, who are the players, and when do their motives become questionable?
- Why is marijuana illegal?
- What health risks do we really face?
- Does prohibition work?
- What would happen if we taxed it?
- Medicine, paper, fuel, textiles, food, etc. Are we missing something?
Find out on March 3, 2010, Room CLH D! Producer Adam Scorgie will be joining us via webcam for a Q&A session afterwards. Come see what the buzz is all about.
Please Note: There are only 196 seats available. There will be tickets at the door, beginning at 6:30. They will be distributed on a first come, first serve basis. IF you want reserved seats, please contact me asap. :)
Support CSSDP, and help us raise the funds to hold more events!
