We've been informed that this coming Sunday night (10/12) at 9:00pm EST and midnight, CNN's IMPACT will air a piece on increased marijuana production and trafficking in British Columbia, including a feature on Vancouver's Marc Emery, who runs a hemp store, sells seeds and growing equipment, publishes a magazine, "Cannabis Canada", runs a website, and who is testing the Vancouver Police Department's liberal policies. He is charged with trafficking and could face life in prison, but is still in business pending the outcome of the court case.

Emery's establishment, HEMP BC, and the magazine Cannabis Canada, can be found online at http://www.hempbc.com/.
