NDP House Leader Libby Davies on Afghan Documents
OTTAWA – MPs will ask House of Commons Speaker Peter Milliken for an extension until Friday to come up with a plan to view sensitive documents related to the transfer of Afghan detainees. NDP House leader Libby Davies said a struggling point is what do to if the Conservatives refuse to publicly release some documents they view as too sensitive.

The Honourable Vic Toews

Dear Minister Toews,
I write to ask that you stop the extradition of Canadian Marc Emery to the United States and allow him to serve his prison sentence in Canada.
Your government took a rare and unnecessary step today, by extraditing a Canadian citizen to serve a prison sentence in America for actions that are not worthy of prosecution under Canadian laws. Further to this uneven approach, it is my understanding that American officials were amiable to Mr. Emery serving his sentence in Canada. Yet your government has refused to cooperate.
I therefore urge you to act in best the interest of this Canadian citizen and in the interest of Canadian sovereignty and allow Mr. Emery to serve his sentence in Canada.
I look forward to hearing from you as soon as possible on this urgent matter.
Sincerely,
Libby Davies, MP
Vancouver East
