"(3.) E.g. Masonry in Saudi Arabia in supervised by the American Canadian Grand Lodge: "To support the
Masons who were members of forces occupying Germany after WWII, two Grand Lodges developed.
One, in the British Occupation Zone, became the Grand Lodge of British Freemasons. The other, in the
American-Canadian Occupation Zones, became the American Canadian Grand Lodge (ACGL). When the
German Lodges returned to light, three German Grand Lodges emerged. In time, all of the above joined
together (as separate Grand Lodges) to form the United Grand Lodges of Germany. Although a
considerable portion of the Brothers of the ACGL are still military, due to the American forces stationed
in Germany, the percentage of non-military membership has increased over time. The ACGL's District 9
is in Saudi Arabia; the membership consists of non-military expats." E-mail: Date: Fri., 14 Dec 1996

I find this footnote worrying...because I don't know what it means - or rather its implications...what possible connection does Canadian Freemasonry have to Saudi Arabia?
