GOVERNMENT TURNED ITS BACK ON A TAX-PAYING CANADIAN

I sat and watched the Canadian government bow down and take my friend
Marc Emery away this week, to a fate unknown. Our constitution seems
to mean nothing to Mr. Harper and his goons.

This will happen again and maybe it will be you, or someone you love.
Marc paid his taxes to the government for many years and they didn't
have any issue taking it. Now they turn their backs on a tax-paying
Canadian. You may not all agree with what his business was, but it was
still a business that gave its money to the government. I am very sad
to say I am ashamed to be Canadian today.

We have no sovereignty, we have no rights, we vote and the
Conservatives still get in and dictate and abandon the citizens. I
don't want to hear anything more about his stimulus packages, I want
to see him and Ed gone . . . close down more long-term care beds, put
our seniors on the streets, put a tax-paying citizen in jail, where he
may never come out of, as he fights organized criminals and they are
putting him in a jail full of them! If he is killed in that prison,
how well will you sleep at night?

Some of you may say fine. I say it could be your son, your daughter or
you the drug war has failed. Prohibition is the harm! Open your eyes!
