- "Archdeacon Bruce Myers, the Anglican Church of Canada's co-ordinator for ecumenical and interfaith relations, is now in line to be the 13th bishop of Quebec after being elected the diocese's co-adjutor bishop November 27 [2015]". "The election followed an announcement by the current bishop, Dennis Drainville, that he planned to retire in 2017. Myers anticipates serving in his new role sometime in the spring. His first priorities are to travel around the diocese and become more familiar with its people and communities, as well as working out a transition plan with the current bishop, he said". "Myers' election comes after a career that has spanned ministty and journalism. He was Ottawa bureau chief for CFRB/CJAD radio from 1995-1997, then Quebec City bureau chief from 1997-1999. Myers worked for Mix 96 radio in Montreal, while simultaneously completing a bachelor's degree in theology at McGill University. He later earned a diploma in ministry at Montreal Diocesan Theological College and was ordained as a priest of the diocese of Quebec in 2004. Myers then served as parish priest in the Magdalen Islands from 2004-2007. From 2007-
