...pot prince poaching trademark, CBC says

Vancouver -- Canada's so-called Prince of Pot says he's received a legal notice from the CBC telling him to stop promoting a hockey game screening event as "Hockey Night in Vansterdam."

Marc Emery decided to start showing hockey games at the B.C. Marijuana Party's Vapour Lounge.

He said the reason for the move was that there are plenty of places in Vancouver to have a beer and watch a game but nowhere to smoke pot and enjoy some sports viewing.

The CBC alleges Mr. Emery has violated its trademarks.
