Congratulations on 50th Anniversary of Canadian Unitarian Council

I have offered the congratulations of the General Assembly to the Executive Director of the Canadian Unitarian Council on their formation 50 years ago which will be celebrated at their Annual Conference and Meeting in Toronto later this week.

The links between British and Canadian Unitarians, of course, go back to the mid-19th Century and the bonds of shared ideals, friendship and mutual support sustain our relationship. The Canadian Unitarian Council remains an affiliated body of the General Assembly and that we join together in the International Council of Unitarians and Universalists.

As bodies of a similar size we have much to learn from each other.
