  • jodie is awesome and the host was surprisingly not a huge twat.

  • Comment removed

  • Wow... Conservative news interviews in Canada are so much less offensive and intrusive then they are in the US... Sun > Fox

  • News is supposed to deliver information in an unbiased fashion. This is opinionated. This type of "news" broadcasting is like candy to those who are too mentally lazy to think for themselves. This particular clip aside, this is a joke. This is the last thing that any country needs in terms of a news station.

  • I love how Coren thinks he's an expert on drugs and yet knows nothing beyond common knowledge about them. LOL.

  • Fuck you all I will only be happy when theres a weed shop/cafe down my street

  • @MickHartsen And besides, did you watch this video and can you comment on the job I did? Did I not represent our cause and message well? Do you have any constructive criticism? I don't understand why some people can claim that I'm unprofessional or egocentric, when absolutely everything I talk about in the media and in my speeches is focused on cannabis, prohibition, activism, and freedom for all.

  • @MickHartsen 3) Since then, some Rick fanatics made YouTube, Facebook and other pages wishing Marc harm in prison, celebrating his suffering behind bars, encouraging rape and violence against him (and even me), spreading lies and slander about him, and trying to discredit his multi-decade-long career of activism for freedom and our accomplishments. We don't spend any time focusing on Rick Simpson, but he and some of his followers sure spend a lot time trying to attack Marc and me.

  • @MickHartsen 2) (continued) We were promoting his case online before anyone else was back then. So we couldn't run the article without real evidence and not just testimony (we had extremely high standards for integrity and evidence-based articles in our print magazine, unlike other magazines) and that made Rick and his most die-hard fans ballistic.

  • @MickHartsen 2) CC wanted to do a print story about Rick, but his article refused to include any medical evidence to back up his claims (i.e. doctor quotes about seeing a diagnosis of cancer change into a diagnosis of no cancer) and he wouldn't provide any detailed information about the oil. This was BEFORE High Times or anyone else covered him. (continued)

  • @MickHartsen 1) Cannabis Culture Magazine and Marc Emery have always known and published science-backed stories about cannabis holding the cure for cancer. That is not in dispute, even though people claim Marc doesn't believe it. You can check CC back issues from long before Rick Simpson was even making oil to see that CC has always known and promoted that fact. (Search "cannabis cancer" at our CannabisCulture website and you'll find endless articles from over more than a decade.)

  • Brilliant interview, wake up Conservatives this is an issue that transcends the left-right paradigm.

  • Keep fighting the good fight!

  • WE GOTTA HAVE A VOTE AND TEACH PEOPLE THE REAL DEAL BOUT WEED.

  • Canada's amazing sweetheart lucky marc , lucky canada, Jodie for prime minister

  • Joide you are beautiful!

  • U.S. Surgeon General's Actuarial info (1990):

    DEATHS from

    Alcohol -- 130,000

    Prescribed drugs -- 18,675

    Caffeine -- 5,800

    Aspirin -- 986

    Marijuana -- 0

    ==

    Why does not government legalize marijuana? Because this would be the sane thing to do!

  • @wda013 You forgot tobacco at well over 300k almost near 400k per year on the USA alone.

  • @irteaocusaicaro

    right. TOBACCO=IDIOT-DRUG#1, undoubtedly --

    WHO estimates that in the 20th century about 100,000,000 people died from tobacco, and that in the 21st century (unless trends are reversed) 1000,000,000 will die [often cruelly] from their tob.consumption. --

    Every second (ONE out of TWO) tobacco-suckers die from their addiction, many of them a death I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. -- More people die from SECONDHAND-tob.smoke than from ALL illegal drugs combined!

  • Namasté Jodie Emery ! Namasté Marc Emery !!

    " When injustice and insanity become 'law', RESISTANCE becomes everyones duty "

    PROHIBITION KILLS! Free drug users, help abusers...decriminalize & watch drug lords weep!

  • Thank god we have SUN News that will cover this objectively .

  • Does anyone remember the story out of the US about the grade school kid who narc'd on his parents for having pot, because the "friendly policeman told them in school that it was wrong, and kids should tell police or teachers if someone is smoking pot". Well, the kid took "officer friendly's" word, and turned in his parents. The child is now living in foster care. Remember that? Do you think that kid will EVER trust an authority figure again in his life? And all over some weed...

  • I like Michael Corren, BUT. On this topic he's wrong. And i'll bet 10 to one that he could get "excited" over a fight to drink wine... Tobacco is THE gateway drug, along with alcohol. You can use cannabis without abusing it, LMAO, WTF Michael?!! Non violent offenders should NEVER be put in prison with rapists and murderers!

  • Wow, I am super proud on you Jodie, for making such a valid statements in your TV. :) A good way to spread the word!

  • Wow, I am super proud on you Jodie, for making such a valid statements in your TV. :) A good way to spread the word! Greeting from Czech Republic and Free Marc Emery!

  • 3:56 wow Mike way to try to discredit the main message that this woman is trying to send.Shes not saying that all drugs should be allowed;she's saying that the gov' should use its available resources to allow this plant to be cultivated for medicinal&recreation use &to provide a new form of income for the country by making it legal&getting revenue from the tax on it like they do with tobacco and alcohol.You're trying to make her say she promotes drug abuse for a soundbite 4 your Fauxnews wannabe

  • @Slapchop21 Unfortunately, when politicians hear "tax and regulate", they think "NEW (& excessive) TAXES" and "NEW REGULATIONS" and "NEW REGULATORY BODIES" and "MORE GOVERNMENT CONTROL!"

    1)  Repeal prohibition.

    2) "Underground" businesses will come above board.

    3) "Businesses" are already taxable.

    4) They will hire people: Income taxes.

    5) Businesses need furniture, fixtures, equipment, etc. ALL TAXABLE.

    6) Employees will buy things...ALL TAXABLE.

    No new "cannabis-specific" taxes needed!

  • HELL YES LEGALIZE...

  • @MrGodam29 Not "legalize." Not even "re-legalize" or "decriminalize", and DAMNED SURE NOT "tax and regulate."

    What's really needed here is to acknowledge the truth behind prohibition: PROHIBITION ITSELF causes the problems that it is "said" to have been created to fix!

    The ONLY way to fix the problem is not to "modify the problem a little here, and a little there, and throw more money at it", but ti ELIMINATE the problem entirely, and the only way that will ever be accomplished is by REPEAL!

  • Wow.. I'm glad the interviewer wasn't a close-minded nutcase. He actually let Jodie speak and share her points.

  • SUN news is Canada's FOX

  • Jodie emery is getting so much better at public speaking, you go girl! lol

  • HAha cAnada is complete shit

  • @TheBoxxylol canadas cooler than usa.

  • @MrGodam29 If you think that Canada is cooler than the USA, you have NOT been paying close enough attention!

    Emperor Harperius Mandatorius Minimus is trying to bring every last bit of the worst of the USA's failed policies home to Canada RIGHT THIS VERY SECOND, in the form of Bill C-10...a rather innocuous-sounding title for a bill that wants pot growers to spend more MANDATORY MINIMUM time in prison than CONVICTED SERIAL PEDOPHILES!

    If I had a choice, I'd have a grower next door, NOT a pedo!

  • What a beautiful spokesperson for pot! She won this discussion because the truth is on our side.

  • Jodie emery is my fav, true freedom fighter! Legalize

  • It's a shame he disagreed but at least he did so tastefully.

  • I never heard of Marc Emery till a couple years ago I am a US citizen and I cherish our Constitution and when I study the Magma Carta the declaration of Independence and the federalist papers. What I interpret is civil rights and I am dumb founded that the basis of the drug laws are based on the thinly worded and and misinterpreted Commerce clause that if it were interpreted would make it illegal for even a victory garden today this is insanity I can only quote Patrick Henry Liberty or Death

  • @RasAhmose Someone got dropped on their hand as a child.

  • @TheStrossus Nope, Just some one who actually knows wtf they're talking about, unlike most of you nitwits who blindly support snakes like this.

  • @RasAhmose If you've dealt with us both - explain when, and where, and who you are. Anonymous claims are nothing but lies. And what do you mean by "fake"? Isn't everything said on this interview truth and advocacy for the cannabis users and growers who are harmed by prohibition? Isn't explaining why cannabis should be legal a benefit for the marijuana movement? What dishonesty or falseness exists in this video, or any of the hundreds of videos and speeches and interviews I've done? Who are you?

  • @JodieEmery The only thing you've said that I take issue with is your mentioning of "regulation and taxation", when we all know that these words mean "NEW TAXES" and "NEW CONTROLS" in the minds of politicians.

    There is NO NEED for "new taxes" or "new regulations" at all, as simply bringing the cannabis/hemp market back, and above board, will instantly "create" new businesses, new jobs, and all the associated "preexisting sales tax revenues" from the currently underground & tax-free economy.

  • @RasAhmose I don't see you out there. Fake or not, at least they are out there trying to end the stupidity that is prohibition. They are the face of sanity for lots of people. Maybe it is for the money, but I'm not seeing that as they have none and Marc is in jail. Besides, what do you think its all about for the prohibitionists? That's what its all about for everyone. Which is why we are fucked.

  • @RasAhmose rofl are you joking? most of the money Marc ever made from his seed business went straight into the world wide legalization movement funding parties and organizations all over the world. It's just really not even worth giving your lack of intellect any further analysis, it pains me to think of little you know of what the Emery's have contributed to this movement. No ones perfect or has all the answers but we're all working together for more liberty, you are clearly not. Troll.

  • @RasAhmose I'll ask you the same thing I asked Mike Hartsen below - Did you watch this video and can you comment on the job I did? Did I not represent our cause and message well? Do you have any constructive criticism? How can you claim that I'm unprofessional or egocentric, when absolutely everything I talk about in the media and in speeches is focused on cannabis, prohibition, activism, and freedom for all?

  • Great job, you spoke eloquently and intelligently.

  • Very good interview Jodie! Concise and articulate, love it! Also the point on conservatives not liking a big overreaching government is a great point to make on air on a mainstream network. One of your best interviews. Keep up the fight!

  • Go Jodie Go !!!

  • She could be the nexted prime Minister of Canada

  • Cannabis Prohibition has proven to be the most destructive US policy since SLAVERY End this night mare on civil rights, I been partaking for 43 years and the only down side is the smell and unconstitutional Bad laws. And I now use for my diabetic related issues

  • "puff puff pass this legislation"

    STFU sun news....

  • You touched on a very important point. Kids figgure out they have been lied to about cannabis pretty quick. Then the question forms in their minds, I wonder what else society has lied to me about? People don't respect liars. So why are we surprised when many youth dont respect society.

    Prohibition harms society more than what it attempts to protect us from.

    Peace Jodie

    Thanks

    d

  • good job judie

  • Mrs. Emery...

    clear, concise, intelligent, and

    DROP DEAD SMOKIN' HOT!

    to say no to cannabis is to say no to life.

  • If you agree with keeping pot illegal, you are supporting:

    Child drug dealers

    Child drug users

    Violence

    Drug cartels ( they absolutely love you )

    Wasted tax payer money on jails and courts time and police!

  • By cannabis being illegal, people are forced to go to people who may also be selling hard drugs and even if they are not, most people who sell drugs are liars and thieves and obviously not paying any taxes on it. As mentioned, by claiming marijuana is just as bad as hard drugs, it is destroying the trust people have in the government.

    However, the claim some people make "it's just a plant" or "it's made by God" are the most ignorant arguments because everything comes from plants and/or God.

  • @guest2424 Nothing comes from God, every molecule stems from simple molecules which were shot into the universe by a supernova, the resulting explosive jetsam from that supernova created the gasclouds which formed the earth and our whole solar system. Read up on science, how anyone can claim that a being just magically created billions of suns within a matter of seconds is beyond me and anyone claiming that should be in a mental hospital.

  • @KreatorRage okay so who made the "supernova"? no1 claims it was in seconds dumb ass

  • @KreatorRage That's another point, not all believe in God, however, God in the past has been believed to be the sun, so "God" can be anything from a conscious being to nothing more than an explosion/supernova or atoms or oxygen or anything at all. The point I was making, is that claiming "God" or "Natural" or "just a plant" are arguments that will only make you look like a fool. I am glad Jody did not use these in her interview. Thank you for validating my claim.

  • Very well handled Jodie, a very admirable appearance.

  • @CannabisCureTV Hey Cannabis Cure! How was Amsterdam?

  • Be careful ...... next time you go on that show they will have done their homework and try to nail you.... I notice how they always try to push you onto the subject of hard drugs and get away from cannabis knowing that the general public will be outraged at the more extreme liberal views giving them better viewing figures.

  • There would never be Change if it wasn't for brave people Like MARC EMERY.

  • well done!

  • SEXY

  • Good Job Jodie!

  • 0 Dislikes, lets keep it that way.

  • it's NOT a DRUG ,, it's a PLANT .. it should have never been made illegal..

  • @WeAskThePeople yeah but its psycho-active which makes into a drug. just like coffee. but its okay because its still less addictive than coffee. and much better for you. and its illegal because of greed.

  • If heroine, cocaine, and meth and every other drug was made legal tomorrow, how many of you would actually go out and try it? I certainly wouldn't.

  • Class,Class,Class. Go Jodie! You Rock...

  • If you invite a guest to speak then let them. If you want your self to be heard then just have a segment to your self. Seems pretty easy to me.

  • wtf jodie is saying, marijuana is safe for every human in fact im 16 and im smoking on some danky medical 

  • She is such a beautiful woman inside and out.

  • News Anchors a Fucking DUSH BAG.. ugh !! <3 you Jodie, keep fight the good fight, wish i had a girl like you hahaha , Peace and Free Marc !!!

  • im going to sue safeway because i got high on poppi bread,

  • puff duce

  • GO JODIE, WELL SPOKEN. WHEN THE PRINCE RETURNS I LIVE IN ST. LUCIA IN THE CARIBBEAN AND IT WOULD BE MY HONOUR TO HAVE YOU BOTH AS GUESTS IF YOU ARE EVER DOWN THIS WAY. FREE MARC EMERY 1LOVE =)

  • Excellent work Mrs. Emery!

  • Great job Jodi! Very well done. Thank you.

  • American commercials DO claim that marijuana destroys lives, glad to see it seems like Canada doesn't spread the shit that far up the walls.

  • @XLshiftR8 Exactly! We're led to believe that it's a "gateway" drug.

  • kudos to jodie for setting the record straight seeds not marijuana. you might want to hop on board and get a little excited because right now the guy selling to your kids has control what kind of access to other drugs he has who knows maybe your kids dealer convinced him that some other drug is the shit. atleast with regulation its harder for kids to get a hold of it, its harder for kids to get alcohol then illegal drugs, thank you black market and prohibtion.

  • Like a boss ms emery. I was told in the US in a Dare program that indeed drugs, "especially maruijuana," will ruin my life.

    " If heroin were legal tomorrow would you use it? No!!!" - Ron Paul. I have to agree.

    Canada needs to balls up and indite Your husband if it is so illegal. It is directly an affront to the sovereignty of Canada, to have a law in their country carried out by another. Your husband is a political prisoner. He donated money that is why he is in jail.

  • wow she's beautiful and smart and awesome.

  • "The illegality of cannabis is outrageous, an impediment to full utilization of a drug which helps produce the serenity and insight, sensitivity and fellowship so desperately needed in this increasingly mad and dangerous world."
