On January 13, Cardinal Collins issues a memorandum to "all clergy and staff" of the Archdiocese of Toronto now posted on the web page at Cardinal Collins update - January 13, 2021.pdf (archtoronto.org). One might ask why this was not addressed to the directly to the "faithful." Unless one's priest communicates these or you look at the web page, or read Vox Cantoris, how would you know what the Cardinal is doing or advising?
No doubt under intense pressure as many have been inundating the Cardinal with over his inane decision to ban the public celebration of Holy Mass but permitting a "communion service," Collins has permitted Mass up to ten persons for weddings and funerals. If for weddings and funerals, why not just every day, Your Eminence? Why not order it to happen in all parishes, daily rather than leave it to the Andy MacBeth's of the world to shut down parishes completely as he has done at St. Margaret of Scotland. He's still looking for money all over the parish bulleting. MacBeth shuts the church but expects you to open your wallet. And the Cardinal permits this.
