“Cocaine Alley” – an Agent4Change video – By: Chris Albinati and Trevor Wadey Special Thanks to: Nick, Cocaine Anonymous, AADAC, Fresh Start, the Calgary Police Service, Scott Carpenter, CJSW, Mount Royal College, and everyone who votes for change. ==Synopsis== Calgary has been seeing a surge in drug use like it’s never seen before. With the dissolution of it’s downtown eastside and the revitalization of the area, addicts, homeless and the like are being dispersed throughout the core and beltline communities. Experts believe that less then 15% of drug abusers fit the typical, street person stereotype. That means 85% are average Joe’s, coaching their kids soccer games, or running their small business. 85% could be studying towards a degree or working towards a promotion. In every market the demand dictates the supply. If everyone became vegans, slaughter houses and dairy farms would shut down everywhere. It’s time we took a new approach to the drug issue. Impact the demand and you impact the supply. Encourage people to give up the drug while they can and the suppliers will run out of people to sell drugs to.
