Canada’s foremost pro-life elderly care facility, the Delta Hospice Society (DHS), was allowed intervenor status in the constitutional challenge, which will decide whether or not faith-based health care facilities will be forced to offer state-sanctioned euthanasia, or “Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID)” as it’s euphemistically known.

The Synod on Synodality was an “ironclad manipulation,” Cardinal Joseph Zen, 93, said in his three-minute intervention at the consistory held January 7–8. The text of his speech was published on the Substack account of Edward Pentin CardinalNews.Substack.com. Prior to the consistory, Cardinal Zen was received in private audience by Pope Leo XIV. Synod’s Invocation of the Holy Spirit Verges on Blasphemy In his intervention, Cardinal Zen criticized the late Pope Francis and the synodal process he initiated: “The ironclad manipulation of the process is an insult to the dignity of the Bishops, and the continual reference to the Holy Spirit is ridiculous and almost blasphemous.” Francis, he said, expected “surprises” from the Holy Spirit. Cardinal Zen responded: “What surprises?
