Neil Young faces US citizenship delay over marijuana use | Music | The Guardian

The Canadian songwriter is pursuing dual citizenship in order to ‘vote my conscience on Donald J Trump’ in the 2020 election

Neil Young is facing a delay in his application for US citizenship after honestly answering a question about his marijuana use.

In a letter to fans posted on his website, the Canadian songwriter said that he passed the test for citizenship, but that he has been called to take another test “due to my use of marijuana and how some people who smoke it have a problem”.
================================================
Sessions' hypocrisy in action: 'The US Citizenship and Immigration Services added a policy in April 2019, proposed by Jeff Sessions during his period as attorney general, which states: “An applicant who is involved in certain marijuana related activities may lack GMC (Good Moral Character) if found to have violated federal law, even if such activity is not unlawful under applicable state of foreign laws.”' May lack GMC? Most of the hypocrites in the Trump WH lack GMC.
 
It is legal in some States.

Which leads to insane situations.

Case in point, if you were driving from Vancouver to Seattle, you’re leaving a country where it’s legal, entering a state where it’s legal, a Federal agent can ask you if, ever in your life, have you used marijuana.

If you answer yes to that question you can be made inadmissible to the United States for life (you can apply for a waiver but it can be a lengthy and expensive process).

That is just ****ing absurd.
 
Neil Young is just another mindless leftist moron that doesnt apply reason or rational thought to their existence...just their constant empty headed Trump hatred.

we have a boatload of them already...so...stay in Canada ya ****in twat.

A DUI can keep an American from getting into Canada. Turn about is fair play I suppose.
