The Short Version of Krieger Media Kit

by: majere

Here is the short version, I promise already.


Quote from a man who's due diligence I respect fully.


JCT: The Krieger scandal is just such an incredible story
that it can all be backed up in just a few documents. So I
decided to produce an 11x17 4-page hand-out explaining it.

It includes Appendixes 2, 3, 6, 10 with short comments

App.2: 2002 Dec 04 Krieger Ab.C.A. Bench Memorandum on S.7
http://www.albertacourts.ab.ca/jdb/1998-2003/ca/Criminal/2003/2003abca0085.pdf

JCT: No comment needed to read the Court of Appeal's first
24 lines which mention three times how the S.7 prohibition
had been struck down.

App.3: 2002 Dec 05 Calgary Herald Krieger article
http://www.cyberclass.net/turmel/kriegher.jpg

JCT: I added "Calgary Herald plays down the 3 times the
Court of Appeal mentioned that the S.7 cultivation offence
had been struck down for all Canadians as just another
personal medical-use victory for Krieger.

App.6: 2003 May 16 S. David Frankel culpability clause
http://www.cyberclass.net/turmel/frankel.jpg

JCT: I added: Crown Attorney S. David Frankel admits to the
Supreme Court of Canada in Krieger that the Ministry of
Justice knew upon the further Order of the highest court in
Alberta that the prohibition on cultivation in "Section 7(1)
has been declared of no force and effect" and did not amend
the Criminal Code to stop prosecutions of innocent Canadians
under S. 7(1)."

App.10: 2003 Dec 23 Krieger Supreme Court of Canada Order
http://www.cyberclass.net/turmel/kriegscc.jpg
http://www.cyberclass.net/turmel/kriegsc2.htm

JCT: I added: If culvivation of marijuana is no longer
prohibited, by implication, possession is no longer
prohibited.
If possession is no longer prohibited, no purpose of the
possession can be prohibited.

JCT: Luckily, the Supreme Court notes how the Court of
Appeal held that s. 7 of the Charter guarantees the right of
the sick to grow (and by implication, possess) marijuana.

Should be quite fun handing them out to the press at
Dominic Gravel's hearings Thursday. It should be pretty
tough to ignore and omit the name next time!
