Canadian bishops’ plenary goes live this year

After two years of elaborate, COVID-enforced Zoom calls, Canada’s bishops will see each other face-to-face again at this year’s plenary meetings Sept. 26 to 29 in Cornwall, Ont.

The bishops will be in familiar surroundings at the former NAV Centre, now renamed the DEV Hotel and Conference Centre, overlooking the St. Lawrence River.

The Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops has not released an agenda for the meetings. Media have not been invited to cover the event in person, but the bishops will stage an online press conference at the end of the week.
