THE LATEST FROM THE CATHOLIC CIVIL RIGHTS LEAGUE
The CCRL Welcomes the Election of Pope Leo XIV
As defenders of religious freedom and the rights of conscience in Canadian civil society, the CCRL looks forward to the leadership of Pope Leo XIV as a source of strength and renewed clarity. His election is a reminder of the Church’s enduring mission: to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ in every age, to uphold the dignity of the human person, and to defend truth with charity.
Statement on the Death of Pope Francis
We give thanks for the life and ministry of Pope Francis, and we entrust his soul to the mercy of the Risen Lord. We pray for the Church he so faithfully served — unam, sanctam, catholicam et apostolicam Ecclesiam — and we invoke the Holy Spirit’s guidance upon the College of Cardinals as they prepare to elect his successor.

CCRL Call to Action: Contact your Federal Candidates and Defend Charitable Status for Religious Organizations
We at the CCRL believe that stripping charitable status from religious organizations would unjustly penalize them for their beliefs and silence their ability to contribute to Canadian society.
