CP: Punk band The Suicide Pilots catches eye of anti-terror cops

[tuvor]

Access to Information documents released by the band's lawyer Tuesday show that the RCMP's Integrated National Security Enforcement Team took a look at the group last year.

It started just after the band popped to brief national notoriety courtesy of its outspoken and politically active drummer, Jeffrey Monaghan.

...

Monaghan was alleged last spring to have leaked the environmental plan of the Conservative government, and was marched in handcuffs by the RCMP out of his contract job at Environment Canada.

He was never charged with anything, but his musical tastes - including a song titled "Harper Youth" - quickly attracted state scrutiny.
