Activism

CANNABIS CULTURE – Cannabis Culture is a 24-year-old name and brand recognized worldwide for many reasons, all related to cannabis advocacy and activism. While my husband Marc Emery was the founder, owner and operator beginning in 1994, I was the owner and operator from late 2009 onward.

The National Post newspaper asked me to write an OpEd about marijuana legalization. It's one of only two cross-Canada newspapers, and the more right-leaning of the two; it's the paper our Conservative government reads. I was honoured and accepted the opportunity to reach the audience they have.
Activism

CANNABIS CULTURE - My wife Jodie Emery and I both receive thousands of letters and inquiries with impassioned pleas that read: "I want to do something to make a difference. I want to legalize marijuana. What can I do? Can you advise or help me start? Where do I begin?"

Here is a collection of the news coverage and quotes I got into the media from the recent protest we held against Prime Minister Harper and his backwards, costly Bill C-10, which will see the cannabis culture targeted and imprisoned under US-style drug laws.
Activism

CANNABIS CULTURE - The White House has finally issued a response to the "Pardon Marc Emery" petition signed by 8,249 people calling for Obama to pardon Marc and send him home to Canada. Not surprisingly, the answer is mostly a disappointing non-response: the White House has "declined to comment".
