The Vancouver City Council is set to hold a "show-cause" hearing on September 29 to determine whether Hemp B.C. should be granted a business license. City officials have so far denied Hemp B.C.'s application for a license, disputing Shelley Francis' ownership of the store and citing criminal charges pending against the store's founder and former owner, Marc Emery. Hemp B.C. encourages Vancouver residents to meet at City Hall on September 29 to show their support for the store. To read Hemp B.C.'s description of the problem, and to learn about the $1,000,000 suit they have filed against the City of Vancouver, visit their web site at http://www.hempbc.com.
