- "I took the January 'Anglican Journal' out of our mailbox, glanced at it and groaned inwardly. It's ironic, but fairly typical of the Anglican Church of Canada, that at the top of the front page, the words 'Council of General Synod looks to the future' is printed over a never-never bucolic scene of a village with a spired church building at its centre. How about printing it over an image of a new subdivision on the outskirts of Toronto with a shopping mall at its centre ? That is what the future looks like for most Canadians, but it's a future that the Anglican church ignores in its imagery. Might that have something to do with its steadily diminishing relevance in Canada and with the steadily decreasing revenue that is such a worry to General Synod ?" [Text of entire article.]
