THE WORLDWIDE RALLY for MARC EMERY is TODAY!!!
CANNABIS CULTURE - On Saturday, September 19, 2009 (today!) people all over the world will rally in support of ‘Prince of Pot’ Marc Emery, a marijuana activist and magazine publisher who is facing a 5-year prison sentence in the United States for selling marijuana seeds over the Internet.

More than 100 cities across the globe will host demonstrations to protest Emery’s imprisonment, due to take place at 9am on September 28 at the BC Supreme Court (800 Smithe St.), when the embattled BC Marijuana Party leader will surrender into the custody of authorities to await extradition to the US.
“Free Marc Emery” rallies are planned in many major cities and small towns in Canada and the US, and in countries abroad including Germany, South Africa, Denmark, Ireland, Austria, Peru, Norway and the UK.
“Thousands of people around the world have been positively affected by Marc and his message, and will come together on September 19 to demand his freedom,” said Marc’s wife Jodie Emery, policing critic for the BC Green Party and a candidate for the Greens in the upcoming federal election.
“My husband is a Canadian citizen who never crossed the border, yet he has been charged and punished in a foreign country. This should be very disturbing to Canadians. Marc is a political prisoner. He shouldn’t be sent to the USA at all.”
In 2005, the US Drug Enforcement Administration and Vancouver Police raided and closed Emery’s successful seed business, which had been running openly for 11 years with few complaints from Canadian authorities.
A DEA press release issued at the time of his arrest makes note that Emery used millions of dollars generated from his seed company and magazine, Cannabis Culture, to fund drug-reform activism and marijuana legalization groups.
“Hundreds of thousands of dollars of Emery's illicit profits are known to have been channeled to marijuana legalization groups active in the United States and Canada,” the release by DEA chief Karen Tandy reads. “Drug legalization lobbyists now have one less pot of money to rely on.”
Emery’s supporters say this is clear evidence that his arrest was politically motivated.
“This politically motivated extradition, specifically forbidden by the Extradition Act, is yet another example of the Conservative Government's disregard for the law,” said Vancouver rally organizer Jacob Hunter of the Beyond Prohibition Foundation. “The message from the government is clear: Canadians who oppose Harper's radical agenda could wind up in a foreign prison.”

Marc Emery Fact Sheet
Who is Marc Emery?
• Marc Emery is a Canadian cannabis activist. He is the leader of the British Columbia Marijuana Party, publisher and editor of Cannabis Culture Magazine, and runs Cannabis Culture Headquarters retail store and Pot-TV video network. He ran a popular marijuana seed business called “Marc Emery Direct Seeds” from 1994 to 2005.
• Marc Emery has been known as a bookseller and activist in Canada for 30 years, fighting against censorship laws and other social issues long before he became a drug law reform activist.
• Marc Emery has been a media figure for 20 years with regards to marijuana and drug law reform. He is very well known to Canadian, American and international news media organizations.
• Marc Emery never grew or sold marijuana, only the seeds.
• Marc Emery never went to the USA and operated his seed business only in Canada at all times.
• Marc Emery operated his business in full transparency since its inception. He sent a copy of his magazine Cannabis Culture to media outlets and each Member of Parliament in Canada for years. The magazine had pages of seed catalogue listings.
• Marc Emery donated all of the profits from his seed business to drug law reform lobbyists, political parties, global protests and rallies, lawyers and court cases, medical marijuana initiatives, drug rehabilitation clinics, grassroots media, and many other legitimate legal activities and organizations.
• Marc Emery helped found or support the United States Marijuana Party, US state and Canadian provincial political parties, and international political parties.
• Marc Emery declared his income from marijuana seed sales on his income tax, and paid over $580,000 to the Federal and Provincial governments from 1999 to 2005.
• The US Drug Enforcement Administration admitted numerous times in a press release from Administrator Karen Tandy that his arrest was based on his drug legalization funding and efforts – a copy of that political document can be read and viewed online at www.NoExtradition.net ?
What’s happening to Marc Emery?
Marc Emery ran "Emery Direct Seeds", a marijuana seed business, in downtown Vancouver BC and online for over ten years. Marc wanted to be the main benefactor of the marijuana movement, with the goal to end prohibition across North America and the world.
In July 2005, the US Justice Department requested Canada extradite Marc to the USA to be charged with conspiracy to produce marijuana, conspiracy to traffic marijuana, and conspiracy to launder the proceeds of crime – all charges that imply Marc grew marijuana to make money, even though he only sold seeds and gave all the money away.
Marc was facing ten-year mandatory minimums on each charge, with possible life imprisonment in US federal prison. After his co-accused made plea deals for 2 years probation, Marc decided to make a plea deal for a 5-year sentence in the US federal system.
Canada’s Justice Minister is extraditing Marc to the USA, even though hundreds of thousands of people believe that he should not be punished at all. Most people are offended that a Canadian can be charged and imprisoned in a foreign country for the act of selling seeds through the mail – and even more people believe that, if Marc is to be imprisoned at all, he should serve his time in Canadian prison.
Marc is trying to get transferred home to Canada, so please help him! FREE MARC EMERY!

The International Hempology 101 Society will be initiating a national campaign to stop Bill C15. PHONE JAM will happen TODAY (Monday, September 14, 2009) from the 8 am in Halifax until midnight in Victoria.
We will be calling senators all day to make sure that our senators are informed on this bill before the house resumes the next day.
Mandatory minimum sentencing (MMS) for drug crimes, as proposed for Canada in Bill C-15, have decimated the legal system in United States. We should not be following this example. Overloaded prisons, constant appeals, and powerless judges, all lead to large expenses and generalized punishment for non-violent drug offenses. 6 months in jail for growing 5 plants or sharing 1 joint is disproportionate, and will destroy the lives of many of the youth this law is supposed to be protecting.
According to Sarah Inness, spokesperson for the Canadian Bar Association, “The discretion vested with sentencing judges ensures meaningful distinctions made in the sentencing process, taking into account varying degrees of culpability. Judges are [also] able to impose sentences that emphasize rehabilitation…”. Locking low level dealers and old hippies planting a garden in jail, with hardened criminals unafraid of lengthy sentences, will only serve to increase gang control.
How To Stop Bill C15
Take the time to stand up for your personal liberty. Let the government know that we do not want live in a prison state. Write a letter, an email, or call. Please participate in our PHONE JAM, try to jam the lines of your favorite senator on September 14. Let your government know that we want to talk about theses issues.

A Rally For Marc Emery, on the SATURDAY prior to my day of Sentencing in Seattle, United States, expected in October.
Planning should begin in advance of the announcement of the date in October, which will be made known when it is finalized.
I want 420 demonstrations all over the world, as in, four hundred and twenty villages, towns, cities, islands, and communities with a protest on my behalf, in 42 countries. I have facebook friends in Finland, Sweden, Denmark, Norway, England, Scotland, Ireland, Turkey, Greece, Russia, Chile, Argentina, Brasil, Costa Rica, Mexico, United States, Canada, Iceland, Vietnam, South Africa, Morocco, Saudi Arabia, Australia, New Zealand, and several other nations.
I would like my supporters in every community in Canada to hold a rally on the Saturday of my sentencing at the Government of Canada building that is in almost every city and town in Canada. The government of Canada is responsible for the marijuana prohibition as well as signing off on my extradition.
Additionally, there should more major rallies in support of me at US consulates in Vancouver, Calgary, Toronto, Montreal, Halifax, and the US Embassy in Ottawa.
In the United States, I would like a rally in support of me in cities in all 50 states. Those who are interested in this can begin planning a rally in their community and organize with others to do so. Please contact me if you would like to be a leader of a rally in my name, or help with such a rally in your community, or would attend or make signs.
Across the globe, I would like to see a rally of support in whatever country I can find a supporter to lead a rally wherever on the earth they may be.
Over 40 demonstrations were held around the world on September 10, 2005 to protest my arrest for extradition to the United States, including Moscow, Prague, Wellington, Sydney, Mexico City, Paris, London.
Cannabis Culture has these articles on holding a pot-protest or rally:
http://www.cannabisculture.com/v2/node/10725
Rally Tools:
http://www.cannabisculture.com/v2/node/10728
Appropriate signs are:
* Free Marc Emery * Free Anti-Prohibition Activist Marc Emery
* Free our/the leader of the Cannabis culture, Marc Emery
* DEA out of __________ (your country or town here)
* End Prohibition * No More Drug War
The purpose of signs is to stir the mind of any passersby who might google my name, or prohibition or the drug war. It is important to inform your local media of the rally and its purpose. Rallies in the United States should be at the main courthouse in your town, or DEA office, Justice Dept. office, or a main intersection for maximum visibility to your community.
Rallies not in Canada or the US should be at the US or Canadian embassies or consulates in your country, or at the courthouse in your community, or even at a major intersection. It is important to inform the media or your actions and explain why you feel my leadership is important and why the US prosecution is wrong. Address the fact the DEA (US Drug Enforcement Administration) is in your country also, and should be expelled.
To help me further, all supporters are encouraged to write a polite, sensitive letter to my sentencing judge, Ricardo Martinez, in the federal court in Seattle, pleading for leniency. An address and protocols will be posted soon.

CANNABIS CULTURE - The Prince of Pot Marc Emery is taking a final tour across Canada before he is sent to prison in the United States for selling marijuana seeds online. Go to www.NoExtradition.net or read Marc's latest blog about his fight against extradition and his decision to plead guilty on one count of marijuana distribution, ultimately going to prison in the USA for several years as early as September or October..
Marc and Jodie will be embarking on a tour of Canada beginning July 5 in Calgary, and will cover all major cities in Canada by August. If you want Marc and Jodie to visit your hometown to speak, they require $500 for airfare and a hotel room. Once that is done, we will indicate that city and venue are confirmed.
Once confirmed, the host would need to find a venue to speak at. Marc would prefer to speak outdoors in a park or pavilion during the day, or in a library or hall in the evenings (no pubs or bars), and with a microphone for more than 50 people. His speech is typically 2 to 3 hours plus questions.

Vancouver pot activist Dana Larsen has announced that he will be hosting an exciting four-day marijuana competition and ganja party this summer.
"I decided that we needed to have another big marijuana judging event in Vancouver this year," said Larsen, the former editor of Cannabis Culture Magazine. "Since Marc Emery is not able to put on the Tokers Bowl due to his currently fighting extradition to the USA, I decided to start something new and different. We're calling it the 'Vansterdam Ganja Games and Marijuana Bowl,' and it's happening from July 2 to 5 this year."
Larsen says that only 100 tickets are being sold to the party, and that each one costs $750 US ($890 CND).
"That might sound expensive," said Larsen, "but we've got four nights of very special dinner parties, one of which is a boat cruise. Plus we're planning on events like glass-blowing and bubblehash-making demonstrations, bus tours of Vancouver's best toking spots, walking tours through Vancouver's drug-war history highlights, as well as unlimited access to the BC Marijuana Party Vapour Lounge and the Vancouver Seed Bank's Toker's Lounge."
And what about the weed?
"Everyone who attends will receive a two-gram sample of 14 different marijuana strains," explained Larsen. "plus another six grams of bud to be used in some of the contests. And as if that isn't enough, we'll also be having a bubblehash and budder smorgasbord sampling session on the last day, with many varieties of both available for the testing and enjoyment of our guests."
Larsen said that he was inspired by the Olympics which are coming to Vancouver in 2010, and wanted to include some cannabis-based competitions as part of the event.
"All ticketholders will have a chance to compete in six of our special Ganja Games. All of the contests will have preliminary heats over the weekend, with a final competition among the top contestants during the last party. The contests include things like Speed Joint Rolling, Strain Identification, Smoke-Ring Blowing and more. The final winners will receive some beautiful trophies!"
"Tickets are selling steadily, and anyone who wants to attend should contact us right away," concluded Larsen. "This is an event no true stoner should miss!"

Message from Cannabis Culture Publisher and Editor-In-Chief Marc Emery:
I have decided to cease publication of Cannabis Culture Magazine's print version and move to an entirely online format. Magazine advertising and circulation are predicted to fall off in the near future and matters will get worse if I continue to print a paper edition.
We printed 62,000 copies of issue #73. Soon afterward, magazine distributor Anderson News – who handles 25% (about 12,500) of our magazines that go to newsstands – went out of business. This was terrible news for all magazines, as Anderson News was one of the largest publication distributors in North America. That news led to our main distributor, Disticor, ordering 9,000 fewer copies of #75 (had we printed it), meaning our immediate future sales on newsstands would have been severely reduced. Ultimately, each issue lost about $35,000 to $45,000, and my Cannabis Culture Headquarters store in Vancouver, BC was forced to pay for the losses. That was an unsustainable burden we cannot afford going into the future.
Cannabis Culture Magazine began as the Marijuana & Hemp Newsletter (then called Cannabis Canada, then renamed Cannabis Culture) in 1994, the year the World-Wide Web debuted. In those days, all information about marijuana, hemp and our culture was available only in the monthly High Times Magazine and nothing else. We were the first web site (HempBC.com) in the world about cannabis, appearing in November 1994, and in January 2000, we began the very first cannabis video streaming website (www.Pot.tv) online.
Now there are thousands of websites devoted to cannabis information, photography, commentary, grow information, and political news on an hourly or daily basis. Our magazine, appearing once every eight weeks, simply cannot stay abreast of current events and the modern-day demand for immediate news and material. Our organizations are often being quoted, but the references are from our online material and archives, videos, movies, TV interviews and other multi-media. At the same time, feedback has dropped from readers and the effort to produce a print copy of CC Magazine required enormous manpower and a small Canadian forest for each issue.
The future of all print media is bleak. Many magazines and newspapers could go out of business by the end of the year, including The National Post, Sports Illustrated, Maxim, and many others. Check out the latest Sports Illustrated; it has only 10.5 pages of advertising in the entire issue. TIME Magazine has only eight pages of advertising. Magazines rely on advertising, and as the economy worsens, companies are not able to afford ads like they used to. The digital age is truly the future. Magazines don't have nearly the impact they once did, because all information is available faster and free online. Our www.CannabisCulture.com website gets a huge number of visitors and readers – much more than the magazine ever did – so that’s where we will put all of our effort. It’s clear that printed media is no longer sustainable or effective. If we focus on our online presence, we can raise revenue and be more efficient and competitive with information. We will continue our pioneering ways by taking advantage of our Pot-TV video capabilities and our extensive contacts and reputation around the world.
Here’s a breakdown of CC Magazine’s unsustainable costs. Of the 62,000 printed for #73, only 35,000 sold, meaning 27,000 got destroyed (which is typical with magazines, but very environmentally unfriendly). Now, with chaos in our distribution system, our potential sales would drop to under 30,000. The circulation revenue for that is a disappointing $44,000 per issue; advertising revenue is only providing $30,000 per issue, but it costs $64,000 to print 62,000 copies. It’s another $10,000 to ship to distributors, stores and subscribers. Those costs are covered by revenue from all sources, but the cost of producing the magazine is approximately $16,000 for material (writers and photographers), $32,000 for the staff of six people who work in 8-week cycles to produce the magazine, $4,000 an issue in promotion, posters, subscription cards, and much more that were not covered by revenue the magazine generated. Subscriptions never made money, and we never had more than 1,400 subscribers at any one time. Each magazine cost about $2 each to produce, plus 60 cents to ship in Canada, $1.50 to ship to USA, $3.00 abroad. Envelopes and packing took another 25 cents per issue.
This huge cost of producing CC Magazine has meant our retail stores and mail order have had to pour $20,000 into the magazine each month for the past 3.5 years – ever since the Marc Emery Direct Seed catalog was canceled from CC Magazine in July 2005 (after the US Drug Enforcement Administration raided my seed business and set me up for extradition to the US – please see www.NoExtradition.net if you don’t know this story, and to help me fight to stay in my home country Canada). When I had the seed business, I paid $35,000 for my 12-page catalog to appear in each issue. In those days, CC Magazine had 20 pages of additional advertising that produced $30,000, so combined, advertising generated $65,000 per issue. We’re done our best to keep CC Magazine alive, but it has been a growing revenue drain.
All subscribers will get a credit in the mail worth 25% more value than what we owe for the remainder of the subscription. The credit is redeemable for merchandise from the CC Mail Order catalogue, CC online store (www.CannabisCulture.com/store) or in our CCHQ store (307 West Hastings Street, Vancouver BC, 604-682-1172). If there is no merchandise that subscribers would like to receive, then we will reimburse the remaining subscription money.
I am extremely proud of our 15 years of publishing Cannabis Culture in print. Our activist publication inspired so many people, and did numerous good things for the movement. We will continue to devote our time to changing the world and ending the war on drugs. Our Cannabis Culture and Pot-TV websites, the CCHQ retail store, the BC Marijuana Party, and CC’s online mail order will all continue – and they will be able to do even more now that CC Magazine’s losses won’t be subsidized. It is the end of an era, and I know many readers will miss CC Magazine, but it’s also a new beginning. I hope you join us on our journey into the future.
Thank you for your support over the years.

Hello Cannabis Culture fans!
We here at CC Magazine know that many readers love getting our printed magazines in bookstores and hemp shops. Flipping though the pages, holding it in your hands, taking it with you somewhere -- magazines are great!
But times are changing fast and the Internet is "where it's at", so we're thinking about making CC Magazine available online in PDF or digital format. The idea is similar to High Times' digital magazine (check it out at http://hightimes.com/ ). The online version has the same content as the printed copy, but the files are available for purchase to view online or download.
We're wondering if people are interested in a digital CC Magazine. Would you pay $3.00 for a digital/downloadable version of each issue? Or would you pay more, or less? (Cannabis Culture Magazine, the print version, costs $5.99 US/$6.50 CDN in stores.)
Let us know your thoughts! We want to make our fans happy. :)
Post a message on the Wall of this Cannabis Culture Magazine fan page, or email Jodie@cannabisculture.com
Peace and pot!

Here's Jodie's website for her candidacy as the BC Green Party candidate for Vancouver-Fraserview seeking to oust Liberal Attorney-General Wally Oppal in the May 12th BC general election. She just started work on it an hour ago but it will quickly evolve into an impressive site for justice issues, prohibition, gangland crime, policing, and other policy positions and criticism of the current lackluster Liberal Attorney-General Wally Oppal. BC GREEN Jodie Emery will be competing against NDP candidate Gabriel Yiu and Liberal A-G Oppal. Expect Jodie to come out firing at the A-G's support of criminal gangs and social disorder resulting from Oppal's embrace of prohibition policies.
Please send donations to Jodie's campaign via check or money order to: (make out to)

Contributions from BC residents are tax-creditable, donations from all other Canadians are welcome but not tax-creditable, and alas, our American friends cannot contribute directly to Jodie’s campaign.

We are the candidates in the Provincial BC by-election held on October 29. From October 30- to November 14, I need helpers in my campaign for Mayor of Vancouver.
JODIE & I NEED YOUR HELP!
