Archdiocese of Toronto parishioner Cindy Tracey, a grandmother of (soon to be) 25 grandkids, reflects on her unique role in light of the third World Day of Grandparents and the Elderly on July 23.

Pope Francis’ homily at the holy Mass and blessing of the sacred Pallium for Toronto’s Archbishop Francis Leo and other new metropolitan archbishops on the Solemnity of Saints Peter and Paul.

Once more Michael Swan has proven his worth as a great journalist. In the past he has impressed me with his columns regarding historical, contemporary, spiritual, material, abstract, and objective topics.

Regarding the Register’s July 2 editorial “Bishop Henry’s line in the sand,” kudos to Bishop Henry!  Could he be another John the Baptist?  A voice crying in the wilderness?  I agree with everything he says.

I was troubled by your recent editorial that approved of Prime Minister Trudeau giving millions to Ukraine to “further the war effort.” The money will only help prolong this bloody conflict. Also, there’s a real danger of it escalating into a nuclear war. In fact, many military experts describe the conflict as a proxy war between the U.S.-NATO alliance and Russia. They argue that Ukraine is being used as a tool to attack Russia. As Catholics we shouldn’t be taking sides in this war. We’re called to love both Ukrainians and Russians. It would have been more appropriate to further peace efforts by calling for an end to the war through a negotiated settlement. As Jesus said: “Blessed are the peacemakers for they shall be called sons of God.” (Matthew 5:9)
