  1. Excellent!  Glad to hear it!  I wondered how long it would take before someone challenged the provincial tobacco policy or law going onto the reserve.  I once wrote a letter to someone (can’t remember who now – a Minister or someone) in the Alberta government to explain to me how they can say my Indian status card is not good enough to buy tax exempt tobacco but I had to have a PROVINCIAL tax exemption card!!??  What I got back was a letter in legaleze that I doubt even many lawyers could understand.
    I will anxiously be awaiting the outcome of this lawsuit.
