Hot on the heels of InSite's victory - Part 1 of the documentary Raw Opium will have it's television premiere on TV Ontario October 5, followed by a livestream discussion and an ongoing Twitter converstation tagged #drugpolicy
TVO and Kensington TV are hosting an online live chat during the broadcast with Special Guest: Richard Elliott, Executive Director, Canadian HIV/AIDS Legal Network. (Pictured right)
Richard is a member of the International Advisory Committee of the International Centre for Human Rights and Drug Policy. He and the Canadian HIV/AIDS Legal Network defended Insite at the Supreme Court of Canada in May 2011, in the case in which the Conservative Government tried to shut Insite clinic down.
He has authored numerous publications on a range of legal and human rights issues related to HIV/AIDS and presented extensively on HIV-related human rights issues across the country and internationally.
Raw Opium hopes the online discussion will come from a broad spectrum of opinion about harm reduction and drug policy reform - it's especially timely with the Conservative Crime Bill currently before the House.
