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.
