Emery agrees to 5 years in Canadian prison
This so wrong. God damn US government. I wish the Canadian government had just told the US to fuckoff.
The other thibg thats a crock of shit and our government is too stupid to understand is this sets presidence. What if Canada wants to press charges against Dick Cheney for war crimes and illegal kick backs from Halliburton. Do you think the US will turn that asshole over to Canadian authorities?
...Not yet.
The deal still needs to be agreed upon by Canadian and American authorities. So unfortunately, there is still a possibility of Emery being shipped over....
Horrible, horrible... This man is going to jail for helping a species survive!
I think it would be better than all 3 of them being sent to the united states for a lengthy federal sentence...the crimes were committed in canada, if canada feels the need to punish him, so be it..fuck the united states government..
That article is quite damning of the relationship between the US Government and Canada in how fairly simple law enforcement issues can be used to make more sweeping political statements- a real flexing of the US' muscles, as it were, or a bit of saber-rattling.
I'm disgusted. That sentence is outrageous. Assuming a guilty verdict, he really should have been let go with fines and probation. This is so transparently political it makes me ill.

Again people here is another reason we need to sit on juries. Not Guilty!!
That article almost made me cry. This case is fucked up on so many levels and I hope every single one of the people after him gets what is coming to them. I guess ignorance prevails.
Sigh... pretty soon Canada is going to start extraditing women who break Sharia to the Middle East to face prosecution.
