I am American but I don't particularly care that I am.. it seemed that Canada, ESPECIALLY the B.C. was actually getting somewhere with these marijuana laws and then the America's DEA think that they own Canada, and put Marc Emery in jail!
these are all games. No matter what any officer or government agent says marijuana is too large an industry in Canada to make fully legal. right now anyway.
There will be more Emery's that come up and likely end up in jail due to similar PR stunts.

I noticed that too. It hurts to see such stupidity in print and in action.And it's sad that kids really are in 'treatment' for a drug that is completely non-addictive and good for adults in moderation. If anything is bad for these kids it's putting them in these psycho brainwashing camps run by right wing lunatics.

Sure...what would you suggest we do? Host big smoke ins in front of city hall?..wait...it's been done. Invade?...turn off your electricty to the western seaboard? Realisitically there is fuck all we can do since weed is still technically Illegal in Canada.

so again I ask...what would you suggest we do? I could say the same to Americans for allowing the pointless war on drugs to continue...Don't you think it's own citizens would have more of an impact than another countries? All I know is that I feel alot safer smoking a joint here than I do in the U.S....would you disagree?

Ohh and to top it all off he's asking for donations for his "legal defense fund" if he can't afford to pay a lawyer with all his profits from $300 ten packs of seeds then he's a dumb ass.

I personally don't like him...but I think what he's doing for the weed smoking community is good. He's not forcing anyone to buy his products.

I just noticed the article that Emery claims he makes 3 mil a year selling his seeds and he's asking for money for legal defense. Just because he choses to capitalize on the illegal status of Cannabis doesn't mean I would wish this on him or anyone for that matter. After reading further into the article it does mention he has given back to the community paying for others legal defense and stuff liek that. Still doesn't excuse his crazy high prices. I hope heavens stairway doesn't raise their prices because the compition has been eliminated.

In our economy the laws are passed with where the money is. Vote with your money, It's the most powerful tool we have as citizens. Emery has proven time and time again what he votes on and until this counter culture does the same as a whole then we won't be heard. We need more people capatilizing on illegal drugs. It allows us citizens to show how we vote. Bring the voting booths out. Capatilize the drug trade, after all it's a must in the legalization process.
If I made 3 mil a year it's nobody elses business and I wouldn't tell anyone either, that way when someone thinks I make to much they can shut the fuck up cause they're daydreaming. And if I thought I could start a fund to cover my expenses in court fees and what not then hell yeah I would. This guy is just like us, only he puts his ass on the line for what he believes in.
Does anyone know of any groups to join to show my support in drug reform? All that you know of please... It's time I started walkin the walk.

My impression of Marc Emery is that he is cool and does a lot of good stuff. It's bad that he is in jail. I just do not get the vibe that he is getting rich selling seeds. Look how much good work he has done with rene bejeeblahboo and the iboga therapy house and loretta nall and the legal stuff with high times clone magizines free speech rights in canada. Really, the list of good stuff Marc has been involved with is huge. Maybe he is personally an asshole, I dunno. But I trust his intentions are good.
I hope his case helps his cause. I want to write him in jail.

You all think Marc is a millionaire that lives in a mansion with 10 cars from his seed sales.
You couldn't be more wrong he doesn't own a house he rents he has a single car on lease a extremely large amount of the money he has made with his seed sales goes right back into his fight against marijuana laws & protest rally's around the country.
Not to mention keeping pot-tv running & his magazine with also financially helping people that have been arrested for outrageous cannabis laws & need legal help.

If you would like to help you can send donations to BCMP Bookstore at 307 West Hastings st. Vancouver BC V6B1H6
There will be a huge rally at the US Consulate (1095 W Pender) on September 10. This will be a major event with good music and fine cannabis for everyone. Be sure to attend this massive protest and make our voice be heard.
Take the time to call these three people and tell them how important it is that Canada not send Marc Emery to a US prison. You can also write letters to the newspaper & call in to radio shows.
