BETTER REPORTING NEEDED ON MARIJUANA CASE

Re: 'Reverend' continues appeal of marijuana possession charge (Feb. 17)

Looks like a so-called reporter, Matthew Sitler, doesn't realize that 
the Supreme Court of Canada has ruled, in the case of Syndicat 
Northcrest v. Amselem [2004] 2 S.C.R. 551 that if an individual feels 
that a religious practice is connected to his religion, it is allowed.

I'm looking forward to some better reporting on the case of Rev. 
Michel Ethier who is being persecuted for his quite valid religious beliefs.
