Marc Emery's 'Farewell To Canada' Tour
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.
Read Marc's latest blogpost about his fight against extradition and his chances of going to prison in the USA.
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 mid August. If you want Marc to visit your hometown to speak, he requires $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, and in a library or hall in the evenings (no pubs or bars), with a microphone for more than 50 people. His speech is typically 2 – 3 hours plus questions.
The proposed itinerary for The Farewell to the Prince/Farewell to Canada Tour
Calgary - July 5
Banff - July 6
Edmonton - July 8
Saskatoon - July 9
Winnipeg - July 10
Northern Ontario - July 12
Sudbury - July 13
Windsor - July 14
London - July 15
Toronto - July 17
Orono, Ontario - July 24, 25
Ottawa - July 19
Montreal - July 20
Quebec - July 22
St. John’s - July 29
Halifax - July 27
Kamloops - August 3
Whitehorse - August 7
YellowKnife - August 9
Iqaluit - August 11
Other cities I can add if a sponsor/host is found include St. John, NB, Sarnia, Ontario, Fort St. John, Prince George, and Regina. I will consider any community I can get to where there is a host/sponsor willing to put up the $500. The $500 doesn’t cover the full expense, but Dana Larsen of The Vancouver Medicinal Cannabis Dispensary has agreed to cover any extra cost.
If your hometown is not on my list, contact me. All dates and locations are tentative until we get the money to book the airfare and hotel.
So far the following places are paid for and confirmed: NONE

I'd like you all to know about this so I am bumping this
one.
Sorry for bumping this myself, but I think you should all know
what is happening here with abolishing prohibition on something so inane as Marijuana and such a no-brainer as industrial/food hemp!
Yellowknife???
must be a lot of indoor growers to want and hear him talk.....I wouldn't think Yellowknife is prime spot for outdoor marijuana!!!
haha!!
This 'Tour' will bring greater awareness of 'Who' is benefitting
from the bogus 'War on Drugs'. This is fantastic news.
Can you imagine what influence this 'Tour' is going to bring to the United States??? Especially now since the Federal Reserve is under the gun for the first time in 100 years.
I say, what is currently going on with our movement right now is faaaaaarrrrrrrr more interesting than any movie.
Don't know about you, but I am sitting on the edge of my seat as all this unfolds.
I agree, it's a nail-biter. Do we have
ring-side seats for the total implosion of civilization? Or could it be the dawn of the greatest renaissance of freed creativity and peace the world has ever known? Every day it's exciting to see the new developments.
I bet Marc gets probation
Marijuana is legal in Seattle.
WE ARE GOING TO WIN!
