A letter from Jodie to the American Daily:

"There are some facts that the media is ignoring in this extradition case against Marc Emery, Michelle Rainey, and Gregory Williams.

The Canadian government allowed medicinal marijuana, but has not created any form of access for marijuana seeds. In official documents, the Health Department of Canada has told medicinal exemptees that they are to find their marijuana seeds on the internet, at websites such as Marc Emery Direct Seeds (which is now closed). The Canadian government recommends buying seeds from Marc Emery, and the laws against seed selling have not been enforced since the 1960s. Therefore, the "crimes" committed cannot be seen as enforceable in Canada, and upsets the agreement for extradition.

Also, the American government can execute anyone who grows over 60,000 plants. Assuming that the DEA has grown out the thousands of seeds they've ordered from Marc Emery while on Canadian soil, at his Canadian outlet in Vancouver, they can make a case that Marc Emery is responsible for the cultivation of over 60,000 marijuana plants. This means that Marc Emery, Michelle Rainey, and Gregory Williams can be executed in the United States if extradited to face their penalties.

Of course, this has not been brought up in the American case, as Canada will not extradite anyone to another country if they face the death penalty. This is a sneaky way of getting Canada to hand over individuals to face an uncertain fate, and it's important for people to realize that the United States will certainly let marijuana "criminals" die in their country.

Please stand up for Canada, the true Land of the Free. The world sees us as a haven from the international crimes committed by the United States, and we must continue to represent that beacon of hope and light. "
