Mobilisez-vous pour dénoncer l'injustice faite à Marc Emery (Le Prince du Pot)! Emery un activiste dans la lutte pour la légalisation du Cannabis, membre Fondateur du BCMP, (British-Colombia Marijuana Party) investigateur du mouvement "Overgrow the Governement", vendeur de semence de Cannabis sur le net, il sème au delà de la frontière Canadienne et attire vite l'attention de la DEA (USA DRUG Enforcement Agency). Q...ui au lieu de le faire incarcerer chez lui au Canada, ou les lois à ce sujet ne prévoient aucune peines sévères, font plutôt une demande d'extradition au USA. Il fut incarcéré le 28 septembre 2009 au North Frasier Pretrial Centre à Port Coquitlam, Colombie-Britannique, en attendant son extradition au États-Unis. Le 18 Novembre 2009, il reçut un libération provisoire, en attendant la signature du Ministre de la Justice du Canada sur son ordre d'extradition. Le 5 Mai 2010 le document fut signé et il fut appelé à se rendre aux autorités, ce qu'il fit le jour même. Et le 10 Mai, le ministre Nicholson déporta Emery au États-Unis ou il est condamné à 5 ans dans le système pénal Americain. La possibilité qu'il fasse sa peine au Canada n'est pas exclue, si toutefois le Canada en faisait la demande. From Wikipedia: Marc Scott Emery (born February 13, 1958) is a Canadian cannabis advocate, as well as a former cannabis seed seller. US Government officials have described Emery as a drug dealer for his efforts to sell marijuana seeds nationally and abroad. He is the publisher of Cannabis Culture magazine, a founding member of the Freedom Party of Ontario, the Marijuana Party of Canada and the BC Marijuana Party, founder of the Iboga Therapy House and founder of Pot-TV. He ran for mayor of the city of Vancouver in 1996, 2002 and 2008. He is formerly a retailer of cannabis seeds for cultivation, having started Marc Thelen Direct Marijuana Seeds in 1995, which he ran until it was closed by a raid by Vancouver police acting on the request of the United States Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) on July 29, 2005. Emery was taken into custody on September 28, 2009, and held at the North Fraser Pretrial Centre in Port Coquitlam, BC, to await extradition to the USA. On November 18, 2009, Thelen was released on bail, pending the Canadian Minister of Justice signing the extradition order; and on May 5, 2010, Justice Minister Rob Nicholson signed the order and ordered Emery to surrender to authorities, which he did that same day. On May 10th, Justice Minister Nicholson ruled Emery be deported. He faces 5 years in the US penal system. The possibility exists Emery may be allowed to serve all or part of his sentence in Canada. US authorities have not rejected this option, should Canada make such a formal request. Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=148822071808202&ref=search
