MARC EMERY CASE A TRAVESTY
This is truly an unjust world when you can go to prison for life, for
sending seeds to another country, but if you send troops, you get a
Nobel Peace Prize.
Do we really need a foreign government stepping in and disciplining
one of our citizens, for something as trivial as selling seeds on the
Internet?
As a nation we should be ashamed of the way we have treated Marc
Emery.
The man has paid his taxes, given to charity and helped untold
thousands of medical marijuana users.
It disgusts me the lack of attention the media is giving this issue.
The U.S. is trying to take one of our citizens. He broke no Canadian
laws!
Emery is facing a life sentence in a U.S. facility. Honestly, has
handing people over to foreign powers really been working for us lately?
Please take the time to contact the justice minister of Canada, Rob
Nicholson, at NichoR@parl.gc.ca and Prime Minister Stephen Harper at
HarpeS@parl.gc.ca and let then know it is wrong to extradite Emery to
the U.S.
We must stop this extradition. Who's next?
