No Extradition for the BC3

No Extradition to the USA for Canadian Cannabis Activists!

Please support Canadian citizens Marc Emery, Michelle Rainey and Greg Williams in their fight against extradition to the United States of America.

On July 29th 2005, at the request of the US Justice Department and Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), Vancouver Police and US agents arrested Marc Emery in Halifax, Nova Scotia and associates Michelle Rainey and Greg Williams in Vancouver, British Columbia. The US filed an extradition request with Canada for these three Canadian citizens and wants them to stand trial in the US for selling cannabis seeds. They each face ten years to life in prison for three “conspiracy” charges.

Marc Emery openly sold cannabis seeds in downtown Vancouver, BC for over a decade to finance peaceful organizations and activities opposed to the US “War on Drugs”. Marc Emery contributed $4 million to various organizations in the anti-prohibition movement, and publicly condemned the draconian US Drug War as a horrendous failed policy with disastrous political and social consequences. There were never any objections from the public concerning Marc Emery’s activities.

Marc Emery participated in numerous Canadian elections and continues to appear regularly in domestic and international media. The Canadian Government was always well aware of Marc Emery’s activities, and Revenue Canada and Revenue BC accepted his “marijuana seed vendor” income tax payments for years. Every issue of Marc Emery’s 13-year-old publication Cannabis Culture Magazine is sent to each Member of Parliament, and for 10 of those years the magazine carried his extensive cannabis seed ads. Every Member of Parliament knew what Marc was doing, and never objected at any time.

On May 28th 2007 Marc Emery, Michelle Rainey and Greg Williams will appear in the BC Supreme Court for an extradition hearing scheduled to last for five days. If the judge approves extradition, the Canadian Justice Minister will have the authority to commit Marc Emery, Greg Williams, and Michelle Rainey into US custody. An appeal can be made but will only succeed with the support of the majority of Canadian and American citizens and their elected representatives.

Please help Marc, Michelle and Greg stay in Canada!
Contact the Canadian Justice Minister and politely say

“No Extradition for the BC3!
Keep Marc Emery, Michelle Rainey and Greg Williams in Canada!”

How hypocritical of the US not to allow the extradition of Monsanto officials who are responsible for crop contaminations around the world(not every government is favourable to having a corporation grow death crops inside of its borders) yet it wants 3 sellers of a harmless seed to be extradited and jailed .

^ Monsanto corporation if fucking evil. it is no surprise to me that they get away with doing what they do with politics being how they are.
