- Notes
- "I’m so disappointed that a person with the track record of the primate could not complete her work because of two technicalities (exceeding by a few months the 70-year retirement time for bishops; and the disproportionate weighting of the laity/clergy/bishops voting on the proposed short extension: the people and the clergy wanted it, but the bishops didn’t). Can our Church afford bureaucratic indulgence like this ?" [Text of entire article.]
