In all races traditions are the enrichment of its cultures.  Within these cultures there exists Religious and Spiritual traditional beliefs, which fashion and forges the foundation of their social structures.  These traditional beliefs are the roots of Ethnicity and Heritage.  Within Canada and America we are composed of a Multicultural Society.  However, here in Canada we teach Multiculturalism, and boast of having a true diverse Multicultural society that is Equal under the law.  

In fact, The Canadian Charter Of Rights and Freedoms claimed “Canada is founded upon principles that recognize the supremacy of God and the rule of law”.  Whereby everyone has the following fundamental freedoms: freedom of conscience and religion; freedom of thought, belief, opinion and expression.                

Under the grounds of Religious discrimination, The Canadian Human Rights Commission states: The central issue in any case of alleged discrimination based on religion is not what constitutes a religion but whether the following three questions can be answered in the affirmative:

                    Is the belief sincerely held?
                    Is it religious?
                    Is it the cause of the objective being made?

Where discrimination has occurred because of knowledge of one’s religion or a perception of that religion, it is unnecessary for the complainant to prove his or her religious beliefs.

Here in Canada, under the Constitutional Rights which ensure the fundamental religious freedom of Rights, the Canadian Laws have violated The Canadian Fundamental Constitutional Religious Rights and has committed discrimination against The RASTAFARI People within Canada.  In fact, these laws are being willfully used to Criminalize The RASTAFARI People.

It is globally known that the smoking and other uses of MARIJUANA is a sincere fundamental religious rite held by The RASTAFARI People.  In fact, MARIJUANA use is globally held as synonymous to The RASTAFARI People.  Even the dictionaries, verify the ritualistic religious use of Marijuana by the RASTAFARI People. 

Even within the religious writings held as the foundation of Christianity the USE Of MARIJUANA is documented, and written of in prophesy.  “Behold MY Servant whom I upheld; Mine Elect in whom MY SOUL Delight -----.  A bruise “REED” he shall not break, and “The SMOKING FLAX (MARIJUANA) HE SHALL NOT STOP (ISAIAH 42: 1-3).”  One may say, it states Flax, and not MARIJUANA.  However, it is the translator that erred, because flax is not smoked, only HEMP which is another European name given to GAN-JAH (Tree Of JAH).  It clearly states that a bruise REED he shall not brake, which is a grass like plant which one slightly crush and chewed on.  It is commonly used in that region.  When it states that the Smoking Flax he shall not stop, it clearly differentiates the spiritual use between the two.  In fact, this mistranslation from Hemp to Flax can clearly be verified in the early writings of these religious documents.  “The Flax and the barley was smitten, for the barley was in the ear, and the Flax was boiled (Exodus 9:31)”.  In MIZRAIM, which was later called EGYPT, it is a known fact that Hemp was one of the major agricultural resource, and not Flax.  In fact Flax is not indigenous to the region, but GAN-JAH Is.  However they have many similar uses.  More so, in the Book of Revelation it states: “The leaves of The Tree are for the Healing Of The Nations (Rev. 22:2).  Again it is only MARIJUANA that is globally refers to as The Tree that is Healing Of The Nation.

Thus, these reasons are the cause of the objection being made.  Especially, since, we the RASTAFARI People are a visible part of The Canadian Society.  The RASTAFARI People ritual rite and fundamental beliefs derive out of The Ancient Spiritual Ethnicity and Heritage Of The Nubian (Black) Race.  Thus it is clear that the laws of Canada has violated The Constitutional Rights and has discriminated against The Nubian (Black) Race.                   

The guarantee of Rights and Freedoms under The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms guarantees the right and freedoms set out in it subject only to such reasonable limits prescribed by law as can be demonstrably justified in a free and democratic society.  Since ALCOHOL use is legal within the Canadian Society, and has proven to be far more dangerous and has far more devastating effects on the society than MARIJUANA, then the legalization of Marijuana is justifiable.  Alcohol use is clearly documented to be the causes of high death toll, illnesses, destruction of family and one’s life.  It is even known to be very highly addictive, which has cause the society an enormous cost in rehabilitation.   The effects of Marijuana use has no known cause of death toll, nor any form of devastating effects to Self or the Society.  In fact the benefits far out weighs, any negative effects.  Medically, it is known as a Miracle plant, for its countless uses, and Socially, it is the most ideal relaxant and stress reliever.   Since Alcohol is far more harmful than Marijuana and it is legal within The Canadian Society, then it is clear that The Marijuana laws is a violation and an infringement of Religious Rights Of the RASTAFARI People.     

Hereby this document is a petition, for the Religious rights Of The RASTAFARI People.  Thus I BLACK Inc. Hereby calls upon all RASTAFARI to please sign this petition so it can be submitted to The Federal Courts for our rights.  Therefore, We The RASTAFARI People hereby seek the support of all Canadian Citizens in seeking our Religious Rights.  Surely it is good to teach Multiculturalism, but if it is not practiced, then it is only a delusion.  Therefore, I beseech every one to please sign this petition, and give your support.
