TORONTO May 29, 2006 (AP)— Canada's spy agency said Monday that some Canadian citizens or residents received terror training in al-Qaida-run camps in Afghanistan, providing official reinforcement to what security analysts have warned for years.

The deputy director of the Canadian Security Intelligence Service, Jack Hooper, told a Senate committee studying Canada's role in Afghanistan that there are people living in Canada who fought with al-Qaida during the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan.

I wouldn't think hemp would like industrial, too aggressive I'd tend to think it would like the Grateful Dead and PHish, and probably jazz.
