Travel with Kirk and Trevor beyond simple harm reduction strategies. Kirk brings us stories from Vancouver Island to Gimli, showing us how the Cannabis Culture helps people be well. In Part 1, we meet Kevin Donnelly from Newleaf Outreach (https://newleafoutreach.org/). This new autonomous peer driven harm reduction group in Nanaimo, British Columbia promotes that drug peoples’ rights are human rights. They also believe cannabis plays a role for people with substance use disorders. Then Kirk goes south to see Julia Veintrop from the Victoria Cannabis Buyers’ Club (https://vcbc.live/). The VCBC is an important historic advocacy agency. They’ve taken cannabis cases to the Supreme Court, but more importantly they have 23 years of experience assisting people with accessing affordable cannabis as their medicine. From new to established, Vancouver Island shows us the strength of peers helping peers.
We have a My Cannabis Story from Char about a not so positive experience at a Guns N Roses concert.
Come back for Part 2! Gimli has more to offer than Crown Royal and the Icelandic Festival.
