No Extradition for Marc Emery
Marc Emery has been fighting extradition for years, but legal arguments cannot be made to prevent the extradition from happening because it's not a trial, it's a simple process. Marc would face a mandatory minimum prison sentence of at least ten years if extradited, so he is negotiating a plea deal for a shorter sentence on one charge without the mandatory minimums. He will need supporters to petition for no prison time (then, if imprisoned, protest for his transfer to Canadian prison) so keep informed by visiting this webpage often! full story
