‘Our Catholic school system … is harmed by your actions’: Ontario bishop slams OECTA over WorldPride

Thunder Bay Bishop Fred Colli

THUNDER BAY, Ontario, June 4, 2014 (LifeSiteNews.com) – In a strongly worded letter, Bishop Fred Colli of Thunder Bay, Ontario, has joined Toronto Cardinal Thomas Collins in criticizing the Ontario English Catholic Teachers Association (OECTA) for its decision to march in Toronto’s WorldPride parade this month.

“I am writing as a very concerned Catholic about the intention of OECTA members marching in the World Pride Parade in Toronto,” wrote Bishop Colli to OECTA president James Ryan, in a letter obtained by LifeSiteNews.

“I believe that this parade promotes a lifestyle that is contrary to the moral teachings of our Catholic Church, and your participation in this parade creates confusion, upset and in some cases much anger, among Catholic parents, teachers and others.”

Bishop Colli not only criticized Mr. Ryan’s leadership, but the entire union.  (more...)
