There was a safer crack coalition going on for a while in TO. The people I
know were Rafi Balian and Walter Cavelieri. You can get some info on  that
and reach them through  www.canadianharmreduction.com/. That will also give
you lists and links to most of the agencies that would be doing stuff like
that. Here there hasn't been as big a move, although a number of agencies
started irregularly supplying plastic mouthpieces and 'brillo' scrubbing
pads as part of a hep c reduction a few years ago.
