- "Bishop Ronald Ferris of the northern Ontario diocese of Algoma, who also served as bishop of the Yukon, will retire on Sept. 30, 2008". "In an interview with the 'Anglican Journal', Bishop Ferris, who turned 63 in July [2008], said he and his wife Jan are planning to move to the west coast, possibly to the Langley, B.C. area southeast of Vancouver". "In his letter to the diocese, Bishop Ferris noted that he has led the diocese for 13 years. 'Combined with the 14 years I spent as bishop of Yukon, I have now been continuously travelling for 27 years !' he wrote. A native of Toronto, Bishop Ferris began his working life as a teacher. In 1966, he and Jan moved to the Yukon where he taught and she was a nurse at the Carcross Indian Residential School".
