			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="vancouver drug prevention education" href="http://www.narconon-vancouver.org" target="_blank"><strong>Vancouver drug prevention education</strong></a> is more important than rehab programs if we are to live in a safer society tomorrow. The disturbing trend of drug abuse is not how many people are currently addicted or abusing drugs in the Greater Vancouver BC area. The really big trouble is coming in the next 5 to 10 years.</p>
<p>How quickly are drug abusers being manufactured in the lower mainland? It is a difficult statistic to measure, however an easier method of detection is following the level of general population acceptance of drug misuse. The rate or level of people accepting drug misuse is at an all time high.</p>
<h2>Tolerance of Drug Abuse in Vancouver harms Drug Prevention Efforts</h2>
<p>People openly deal drugs, use drugs and fix outside, in clubs and in public areas without hesitation. Take a walk down Granville St in Vancouver any late afternoon and count how many times you&#8217;re offered drugs to purchase, how many instances of drugs use or intoxication you observe and you&#8217;ll get a sense of the severity of the level of &#8216;cultural acceptance&#8217; or &#8216;tolerance of drug abuse/ misuse in Vancouver.</p>
<p>Surrey, Abbotsford, North &amp; West Vancouver, Burnaby, Richmond and many other cities have similar drug abuse problems.</p>
<h2><a title="drug prevention education Vancouver" href="http://www.narconon-vancouver.org" target="_self">Drug Prevention Education Vancouver</a></h2>
<p>Kids in grade 10 in Vancouver high schools respond well when given the Truth about Drugs in a narrative style that holds back nothing from the kids. Kids know when they are being told the straight facts about drugs, alcohol and it&#8217;s effects on the person.</p>
<h2>Narconon Vancouver Drug Education Responses</h2>
<p><strong>Here are a couple of responses from high school kids after 1 hour drug education presentations</strong>:</p>
<p>One of the counselors summarized the responses from the kids in these statements in a Thank You card:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;<em>You were positively received by the majority of the students according to the follow-up evaluations</em>. Some of the comments were:</p>
<ul>
<li>didn&#8217;t tell us what to do</li>
<li>I learned about how drugs stay in your body</li>
<li>answers all our questions with complete understanding</li>
<li>liked the personal connection to his stories (open honesty)</li>
</ul>
</blockquote>
<blockquote><p>I think your session worked really well and I hope to be in touch with you next year . .</p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Choosing To Use Drugs or Choosing to Live Free</h2>
<p>Living free is about choice. And then again, living on drugs is also a choice. This is a fundamental life principle if you choose to accept it,  about life and about people. <strong>Drug prevention educations</strong> 1st duty is to clearly explain this first and basic choice to high school students. Once a younger person falls under the spell of mood altering drugs, their lives are invisibly shackled to their &#8216;drug of choice&#8217;.</p>
<p>Freedom bears with it a responsibility for ones&#8217; own thoughts, behaviors and choices. I&#8217;ve heard many people justify their actions, explaining how they &#8216;didn&#8217;t have a choice&#8217;. To this I say, you&#8217;re choosing right now. You may not like the choice you&#8217;re making, but please don&#8217;t lie about it. Your free to choose and to think as you will.</p>
<h2>Drug Prevention vs the Illusion of Pro Drug Movement</h2>
<p>The pro drug movement is not about free choice. The pro drug movement is about control via drugs, drug dependence and drug addiction.</p>
<p><strong>Drug Prevention Education in Metro Vancouver</strong> needs to give kids their right to proudly choose to keep their own mind free of intoxication. <em>Intoxicate</em> means to make thoroughly toxic.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s define &#8216;drugs&#8217; here as I&#8217;m using the word &#8216;drugs&#8217;: In these uses I&#8217;m using the word drugs to include mind and mood altering substances, psychotropics or other hallucinogens. Marijuana is all of those things.</p>
<h2>Drug Pushing or Drug &#8216;Education&#8217;?</h2>
<p>Drug pushing in the form of drug education is currently on every TV channel. The &#8216;need&#8217; for anti-depressants, the faulty and fabricated &#8217;science&#8217; of chemical imbalances, all add up to a confused population who forward the &#8216;pro drug&#8217; message.</p>
<p>TV and other marketing of psychotropic drugs are intended as marketing as fabricated drug education. Be warned.</p>
<p>Even though many will object, psychotropics such as benzodiazepines, anti-psychotics, anti-depressants and other sedatives can be the most addictive drugs and dependency inducing drugs used today. They have their place in triage and acute care. Abuses of these drugs occur frequently by medical practitioners, psychiatrists and other drug pushers.</p>
<p>Drug marketers are perhaps the biggest drug pushers of this century. The pharmaceutical industry is nearing $1 trillion in sales per year. This figure is greater than all but a few gross domestic products of all the countries on earth. Drugs are about control through subversive means.</p>
<h2>The Illusion of the Pro Drug Choice</h2>
<p>The most significant lesson to learn in understanding drug use and abuse is that drugs have been used as a method of manipulation, government overthrow, population subjugation and personal degradation. While there are some whose only refuge from their demons, terrors or conscience are to delude their own thoughts with chemical intoxicants, this fact does not circumvent the fact that drugs are used as a control mechanism.</p>
<p>Choosing or promoting drugs as the &#8216;answer&#8217; to lifes problems is therefore a trick, deception and a method of disenfranchising personal sovereign-ship. This &#8220;choice to live a life using drugs&#8221; is like the choice to live a life as a slave to substances. One chooses to be under the spell and under the control of drugs. Like a puppet feeding it&#8217;s own unthinking puppet master, drug users are crafting their own dependency.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Narconon Vancouver Society - A Non-profit Society. Description of purposes and philosophy]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_436" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 160px"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-436" title="Narconon Primary Prevention" src="http://www.narconon-vancouver.org/wp-content/uploads/DSCN06240924-150x150.jpg" alt="Narconon Education" width="150" height="150" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Narconon Education</p></div>
<p><strong>Narconon Vancouver</strong> is a registered non-profit society in Vancouver, BC. The main purposes of Narconon Vancouver are to educate people of the dangers of drugs so they no longer take them or chose not to take drugs. Secondly, Narconon Vancouver assists people who wish to get off of street drugs or dangerous psychotropic drugs.</p>
<h2><a title="Narconon Vancouver" href="http://www.narconon-vancouver.org" target="_self"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Narconon Vancouver</span></strong></a></h2>
<p>Health, common sense and security are the major focuses of helping people live lives of integrity and honesty. Drug abuse and often recreational drug use leads to or is just a smaller form of escapism at the cost of mental, emotional and physical health.</p>
<p>In BC, Canada the health care system is a burden on the good citizens who pay into it but not so often use. Instead, individuals who chose to fool around with personal drug experimentation will be ruining their mental, emotional and physical well being. They will make themselves sick with drugs. Thereby, the health care system is unjustly taxed by irresponsible and careless drug abusers who seem to have only their concerns in mind when they smoke, snort, drink or pop themselves into oblivion.</p>
<p>Drug abuse is a social problem, it&#8217;s a political problem, it&#8217;s a damaging health concern. All of these factors need to be brought into the mix when sorting out solutions to drug abuse.</p>
<h2>Primary Drug Prevention #1</h2>
<p><strong>Narconon Vancouver</strong> Prevention education which intervenes before drug abuse begins is the sanest and most economical method of combating a fight against stupidity and greed for personal profit. Drug abuse disconnects people from their societal responsibilities &#8211; that first responsibility is to demonstrate and set a good example for others.</p>
<p>Insist upon healthy actions and choices by first living them yourself. Then you&#8217;ll be able to speak with conviction when you tell someone abusing drugs, that they are ruining their own health and also taxing an over taxed health / disease care system in BC, Canada.</p>
