As reported by the Calgary Sun: “.Early next month, Bishop Fred Henry, the
always forthright leader of Calgary’s Catholics, will meet this city’s
Catholic school board and there will be little real wiggle room for the
trustees. Early next month, the bishop will once again inform the board it
must stop fundraising through casinos and bingos because the practice is
‘morally problematic.’ “The bishop is willing to discuss how long it will
take for local Catholic schools to find other ways to raise money, but that
is as far as he will go. But they must get out of gambling, something they
have so far refused to do, an action Bishop Fred considers ‘somewhat
defiant.’ “.Bishop Fred is prepared to discuss how to set up a task force to
find other ways of raising money.”
