Join us Thursday when 


Raw Opium <http://www.hellocoolworld.com/link_new.cfm?l=227660> 


visits Canada's Capital!


We are excited about being in Ottawa next week to host Ottawa's Premiere
screening of Raw Opium. 

In its first screenings in Toronto and Vancouver, the film generated a
vigorous debate about the challenges of drug policy reform. We are sure
it will do the same in Ottawa, especially because the screening
coincides with the Harm Reduction Canada conference at Carleton
University, with many delegates expected to attend.

We hope that you too can make it for the film and then stay for our
discussion with three well-informed guests exchanging their views on
Canada's drug policies: Eugene Oscapella: Lawyer and founding member of
the Canadian Drug Policy Foundation; Dr. Marcus Day: an international
Harm Reduction worker and founder of the Caribbean Harm Reduction
Coalition; and Lynne Belle-Isle, Programs Consultant at the Canadian
AIDS Society.

In addition, you'll have a chance to engage with Raw Opium's director,
Peter Findlay.

To watch the trailer and for more info on the film visit rawopium.com
<http://www.hellocoolworld.com/link_new.cfm?l=227661> . If you're
interested in drug policy reform, the international drug trade, human
rights and addiction issues, don't miss this provocative film.

Please let us know if you can make it, by marking your RSVP on Facebook
<https://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=134412969967594> , and pass this
email along.
