| Omar Samad represents the new Afghanistan. He fled the country in 1979 after the communist takeover. After 20 years in the USA, he was one of the first to return to his homeland in December 2001, shortly after the expulsion of the Taliban. Last year, he was appointed Ambassador to Canada. Urbane, thoughtful, his love of and commitment to his homeland are clear. |
