Send her back to the US....

Personally, I believe that marijuana should be legalized...but this women should not get refugee status in Canada.
The federal justice minister has denied refugee status to an American woman who faces drug conspiracy charges in the U.S. for her role in a marijuana grow-op.

On Thursday, Renee Boje of Vancouver was ordered to surrender to Canadian authorities in B.C., to be deported to the U.S. to answer to the drug charges.

Boje complied with the order Friday, but was released on bail a few hours later.

She said she will continue to fight her extradition.

Eight years ago, Boje was arrested and charged in California after police raided a marijuana-growing operation. A year later, she arrived in Canada, where she applied for refugee status.
