Federal Justice Minister Vic Toews has ordered the extradition of former
Yukoner John Graham, who is wanted in the United States for the 1976 murder of
Nova Scotia Mi'kmaq activist Anna Mae Pictou Aquash.

Aquash was shot in the back of the head at the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation
in South Dakota.
Graham, who now lives in Vancouver, was a member of the American Indian
Movement, as was Aquash, at the time she was killed. He was arrested for the
murder in December 2003.
In 2005, the B.C. Supreme Court decided that Graham should be sent to the
U.S. to face the charges.
The extradition order issued Thursday by the federal government follows that
up.
Graham's lawyer Greg Delbigio says Graham will launch a joint appeal on both
the extradition order and the court decision.
Delbigio said he expects a court date for the appeal will be set Friday.
He will also ask the B.C. Court of Appeal that Graham be granted an extension
of his bail.
