Most assuredly!

The oil remains psychoactive, but the strains of cannabis used for legal
hemp have very low concentrations of the active ingredient, THC - so low, in
fact, that no effects are noticeable.  (Before WWII, hemp was one of
Canada's major cash crops - it still grows wild in many areas.  Yup, I
tripped over some of the "feral" strain when I moved to Ontario & being an
old hippie, just had to try it.  All I got for my efforts was a headache.)
