- Notes
- "When is the Anglican Church of Canada going to join the other churches in the Anglican Communion and introduce our own new book 'Book of Common Prayer' (BCP) ?" "Most other Anglican Communion churches have revised their BCP and named it so; ironically, our BAS in some cases uses part of their liturgy. The other name that I strongly feel has to change is Anglican Church of Canada -- to follow our neighbours to the south, and henceforth be known as the Episcopal Church of Canada, or some such variation. We are, after all, an episcopally led church, and for us in Quebec, the term 'Episcopal' is much more acceptable to our French-speaking congregations than 'Anglican'."
