Human Sexuality Task Force

The committee and the report

The Quebec Diocesan Task Force on Human Sexuality was created by Synod at its 2005 session and met from May 2006 to examine matters of human sexuality and report to the diocese and to the delegates to the 2007 General Synod. Their report was released at the end of April and is published here in both English and French as a means of reporting the results of their study to the whole of the diocese.
