FOREIGN LAWS USED ON OUR SOIL
I am writing to voice my opinion on the extradition of Marc Emery,
Michelle Rainey and Greg Williams.
These individuals are being extradited for the sale of marijuana seeds
to the United States.
The problem is not the sale of marijuana seeds, the problem is the
application of American laws on Canadian soil. I am disgusted that
Canadian citizens can be transported to a different nation, for a
crime committed within our own nation. Canadian laws should be applied
to crimes that are committed in Canada, no matter who is involved.
American law should not apply in any circumstances.
Will web pharmacies that sell pharmaceutical drugs to American
citizens be tried under American law as well? While living in any
nation, the only laws that should apply to you are the ones put in
place by the nation's government.
