TORONTO, May 15 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Aloysius Cardinal Ambrozic, the Archbishop of Toronto, has taken action in response to the LifeSite News revelation of the funding of the pro-abortion and pro-homosexual March of Women 2000 by the Canadian Catholic Organization for Development and Peace (CCODP). This latest news is carried on the front page of today’s National Post. The paper reveals that the cardinal has instructed ShareLife to cut funding to CCODP by about $15,000 in protest to the Catholic agency’s support for the march.
In a letter to all priests in the Toronto archdiocese, Cardinal Ambrozic wrote, “many of our clergy and laity have queried the involvement of Development and Peace.” The letter continued, “the association of D&P with this group is indeed unfortunate and we need to make a definite statement to disassociate our archdiocese with this movement through D&P.”
Of note the Post also reports the funding of the March at $135,000, the highest admitted figure thus far.
