Like the rest of the world, Canadian
society stands in urgent need of moral transformation. Such transformation, as
amply evidenced by decades of contentious history, cannot be achieved through
political passion, the conflict of vested interests, or technical recipes. What
is called for is a spiritual revival, as a prerequisite to the successful
application of political, economic and technological instruments. But there is
a need for a catalyst. Be assured that, in spite of your small numbers, you are
the channels through which such a catalyst can be provided.
