Keeping PACE Everywhere

As time goes along some things never change.
Here at P.A.C.E. things don’t change much because we are focused on one thing and that’s educating the people about cannabis.
It doesn’t matter where it is, whether it’s on the street or in a hall far away from home.
One thing stays constant here at P.A.C.E and that’s cannabis education medically or recreational is being spread around.
There is a lot of education that has been missing and we at P.A.C.E. are trying to change that.
Movies
During our last movie rounds we decided to change things up a bit. The first thing we did was put the science movie What if Cannabis Cured Cancer together with a history one by the name of Magic Weed: The Truth about Cannabis Sativa.
This would allow us to show the two themes back to back and to further help educate the people at our movies. The second thing we did was to purchase some advertising space in our local paper. While we have been advertising for months in the coming events page this would be our first ad that would be placed in the body of the paper.
While the hot summer months have slowed things down some, people are still showing up to our cannabis education-al movies. While we don’t see many young people we do see quite a few older people that want to learn more about the therapeutic value of cannabis.
We have even seen people that we know that are against cannabis only to come back to catch another movie.
Are we making a difference?
I would think we are because if we weren’t these former potential prohibitionists would not return.
When you see a researcher that has researched cannabis for decades and much more than any sixty day course an officer participates in, it sure has a profound effect on how people feel about cannabis.
It’s these people that need to learn more and P.A.C.E. is doing that at our cannabis educational movies. Our presentations happen once per month at the Grindhouse Cafe in Campbellford and at The Studio in Belleville ON as we move forward on educating the public.
If you’re in the area stop in and catch a movie, you may find that cannabis learning never ends.
