About WhyProhibition.ca
WhyProhibition.ca has been designed to facilitate activism through enhanced, interactive communications via email and SMS messaging. In addition, WhyProhibition.ca incorporates social networking and "geo-location" tools to help people find people and events in their area.
The idea is simple: We can use technology to make our existing networks of activists far more effective and organized, by using technology to make activism easier. For example, instead of sending a person to a website to find their Member of Parliament, or their local newspaper, why not be able to give them that information automatically? It is with this in mind that we are continuing to develop WhyProhibition.ca
WhyProhibition.ca hosts a number of drug policy activism sites, giving their administrators access to the powerful communications tools, free of charge.
WhyProhibition.ca is a project of the Beyond Prohibition Foundation. The WhyProhibition.ca project is led by the Foundation's Policy Director, Jacob Hunter and is supported by a large community of activists.
WhyProhibition.ca, like it's parent foundation has at it's core one simple principle:
Working to repeal cannabis prohibition and replace it with a regulated and controlled system of production and access.
Take a look around and you'll find lots more information on how to get involved.

Prostitution
How does the page on prostitution help with this initiative? I am not a prude. I have no problem with prostitution and I believe that it should be legal. However I don't think that this is the correct forum for that discussion. I think it could prejudice some people against the cannabis movement.
I agree with you, Sharon.
The focus has to be kept narrow for greatest effectiveness.
Response
I don't speak for this website, but the reason for it being on this page in my view, is because of the allegations made by supporters of this proposed bill of the connection between drug trafficking and sex work. There have been accusations that people in the drug trade are forcing women to engage in sex work against their will. I think it's important to have an area to discuss these accusations.
