Canadian Doctors Try to Railroad Catholic Priest into 'Assisted Suicide' Over Broken Hip | Frank Bergman, Slay News A Canadian Catholic priest is sounding the alarm after doctors tried to pressure him into “assisted suicide” twice while recovering from a broken hip in a hospital, despite him telling them that euthanasia goes against his beliefs. Father Larry Holland, a 79-year-old priest from the Archdiocese of Vancouver, was horrified that Canadian government-sanctioned doctors attempted to railroad him into being euthanized, despite not being terminally ill. The priest’s alarming story underscores growing concerns that Canada’s state-sanctioned assisted suicide program is spiraling far beyond its original limits. Holland said he was “very shocked” after medical pushed so-called “Medical Assistance in Dying” (MAiD) as an “option” during his recovery from a hip fracture.

Páter Larry Holland, 79-ročný katolícky kňaz, ktorý sa zotavuje zo zlomeniny bedrového kĺbu vo Všeobecnej nemocnici vo Vancouveri v Kanade, povedal, že mu nemocničný personál dvakrát ponúkol lekársku pomoc pri umieraní. Stalo sa tak napriek tomu, že dal jasne najavo, že je katolíckym kňazom a je morálne proti eutanázii.
O Rev. Larry Holland, um padre católico de 79 anos que está a recuperar de uma fratura da anca no Hospital Geral de Vancouver, no Canadá, disse que lhe foi oferecida assistência médica para morrer duas vezes pelo pessoal do hospital. Isto apesar de ter deixado claro que é um padre católico e que se opõe moralmente à eutanásia.
Today, Pope Leo XIV has appointed three new U.S. bishops who have expressed criticism of President Donald Trump. Evelio Menjivar-Ayala, 55, currently auxiliary bishop for the Archdiocese of Washington, is the new bishop of Wheeling-Charleston covering West Virginia. He is a formerly undocumented immigrant who was smuggled into the United States in a car trunk. Furthermore, Leo XIV elevated the prelates Gary Studniewski, 68, and Robert Boxie, 45, as new auxiliary bishops for Washington Archdiocese. Cardinal McElroy of Washington is one of the strongest pro-homosexual infiltrators. He publicly defended Fiducia Supplicans and said U.S. opposition focused on homosexual blessings reflected “enduring animus” toward homosexuals. His Archdiocese of Washington spans Washington, D.C., and surrounding Maryland communities, placing its bishops in regular contact with policymakers, diplomats and national media. With Menjivar, Boxie and Studniewski, Leo XIV has again reinforced a leadership group …More
Cardinal DiNardo, of Galveston-Houston, was born in 1949. He retired and was replaced by his coadjutor, named by Francis, in 2025. Cardinal Dolan, of New York, was born in 1950. He was replaced by Leo XIV very shortly after turning 75, in 2025. There is one Cardinal who is older than both of them, and who is still in charge. And not just any cardinal: a horrible administrator, a lousy shepherd, and an ideological nightmare, who, though a native of Nebraska, has been the Archbishop of the pope's own birthplace: Chicago. A formerly exemplary American Catholic town, whose diocese is falling apart.
Fri May 1, 2026 - 12:16 pm EDT TYLER, Texas (LifeSiteNews) — Pope Leo XIV named Tyler, Texas, priest Fr. John Gomez as the new bishop of Laredo, Texas. The move raised eyebrows since Gomez was instrumental in the removal of beloved Tyler, Texas, Bishop Joseph Strickland by Pope Francis. Gomez was vicar general in Tyler under Strickland, but was nevertheless the one who arranged clergy from the diocese to meet with Vatican investigators sent to assess Strickland’s leadership. One of the sources close to Strickland who identified Gomez’s role was Deacon Keith Fournier, who, when called in to give testimony about Bishop Strickland to the Vatican investigators, informed me that he was called by the vicar general – Gomez. Fournier told me that on his arrival he found that the visitation was “not seeking information but a foregone conclusion seeking a way to justify asking (Strickland) to resign.” I communicated with three other individuals intimately involved with the diocese who confirmed …
Oh, dear. Poor Bishop Strickland. When we catch a glimpse of the cross others are asked to carry, sometimes it is very painful to see. May God give him strength and courage.
The Archdiocese of Rouen cancelled a scheduled performance by a well-known Portuguese DJ priest at its Joan of Arc celebrations amid mounting criticism.
Despite originally being announced as one of the event’s featured attractions, Portuguese priest and DJ Guilherme Peixoto will no longer perform at the opening-night concert of Rouen’s 2026 Jeanne d’Arc celebrations on 14 May. The Archdiocese of Rouen, France, said that Padre Guilherme had requested to postpone his appearance. This followed public criticism of his inclusion in the festival programme. Critics questioned the appropriateness of a priest performing electronic music during celebrations dedicated to Joan of Arc. He will be replaced by French DJ Charles B, who will be accompanied by a local opening act. Unlike Padre Guilherme, the replacement performers are not clergy and their performance is not framed by religion. Picture: Padre Guilherme, #newsJkmrzqlodl
Video from a Confirmation Mass yesterday in the Diocese of Charlotte, North Carolina. Bishop Michael Martin sits-eyes closed-as priests, deacons, and laity distribute Holy Communion to all but one family who is ignored as they kneel at the altar rail. This is a parish where, until 6 months ago, the Latin Mass was offered and where (until just a few weeks ago) Communion was distributed at the rail.
Among Benedictines, the Roman Rite and the Novus Ordo coexist very peacefully side by side, said Abbot Primate Jeremias Schröder, a German Benedictine, in an interview with KNA on 30 April. Throughout the order, there are around ten abbeys that celebrate the old rite, mostly in France. The majority belong to the Congregation of Solesmes. Fontgombault Abbey was the first of a group of monasteries that celebrate according to the old rite and they are fully integrated into the Solesmes congregation. Most monasteries in that congregation use the Novus Ordo. In addition, there is Le Barroux Abbey and its daughter foundations, which were initially oriented towards the Lefebvrist movement. Following the episcopal consecrations in 1988, the monastery returned to full communion with Rome is now under the authority of Abbot Schröder. He also mentioned the community in Norcia, Italy (pictured). Novus Ordo in Fontgombault Abbot Schröder summarised: "We all treat one another with respect. As Abbot …More

In an interview at the Venerable English College in Rome following her private audience with Pope Leo XIV, Sarah Mullally was asked whether she discussed the ministry of women with the Pope. “First and foremost, I am a pastor and a spiritual leader. But of course, in sometimes speaking as a spiritual leader and a pastor and a Christian, there are things that we will say that may be perceived as political – but I am not a politician.” “In a sense, what I’m hoping to do is to provide people with hope, praying for those who are in difficulty,” she continued. Mullally then hinted that she sees the ban on female ordinations as an “injustice,” stating that one of her tasks is “at times speaking out where there is injustice, but doing it in a way that is certainly pastoral and spiritually founded.”
First of all, the question of whether she—while dressed as a bishop—had spoken with Prevost regarding the ordination of women was ridiculous. For Prevost had endorsed the parody of the sacrament of the priesthood, allowing her—while dressed as a bishop—to desecrate the Tomb of Saint Peter and Saint Peter’s Basilica, and to use the Church of Saint Ignatius of Loyola to exercise the functions of a "bishop." Moreover, he permitted her to act in his presence as if she were a legitimate priest, leading the prayer; and—making himself a party to the parody—he treated her at all times as if she were a priest, offering neither admonition nor correction of any kind.
" Pagliarani is saying in effect that the Society does not care what the new pope thinks of it because Leo, in the Society’s estimation, is just one more iteration of the error-laced, heretical “Vatican II, Novus Ordo Church”. Thus, there is now no need to wait around for Rome to toss the SSPX some crumbs of tolerance since the Society views itself as more than an “alternative subculture” within the Church. Rather, it views itself as the true “Holy Remnant” of “true Catholicism” whose task has been given by “Providence” to save the Church from itself." --- Who should care what a doubtful pope endorsing and encouraging a cosplay heretic archwoman thinks? Let us repeat with St. Robert Bellarmine: Nam dubius Papa habetur pro non Papa (De Conciliis, Lib. II, Cap. XIX))

When asked about California Bishop Joseph Brennan's participation in an Anglican episcopal consecration on 18 April, Bishop Schneider described it as an ecclesiastical crime, as Monsignor Brennan took part in the simulation of an invalid ordination. Monsignor Schneider pointed out a double standard within the Church: "A bishop who participates in a schismatic, heretical and invalid so-called episcopal consecration apparently remains unpunished. At the same time, a true Catholic and valid episcopal consecration in the Priestly Fraternity of St Pius X is labelled a schismatic act."
Bishop Athanasius Schneider criticised Cardinal Reinhard Marx’s instruction to priests to perform or enable 'blessings' for same-sex couples, calling it "completely irresponsible". Talking to Gloria.tv on 24 April, Monsignor Schneider said that such 'blessings' amount to publicly endorsing a lifestyle contrary to nature, reason and the commandments of God: "To make this almost an obligation is mockery and blasphemy," he said, adding: "It is a grave sin for a cardinal to promote such a thing."

Prevost contradicts the Most Holy Virgin Mary, who revealed at Fatima that more souls go to hell because of sins of sexual impurity than for any other reason.
Apostate Robert Prevost endorses Bergoglio’s heresies: Prevost once again confirms that he possesses the element of obstinacy which establishes him as a manifest, pertinacious, and formal heretic. The Magisterium of the Church has decreed in perpetuity that the elevation of a heretic as Pope is invalid and null. The Church also teaches that the sin of heresy, schism, and apostasy separates the heretic from the Mystical Body of Christ—which is His Church—and that he who is not a member of the Church cannot be the Head of the Church. Apostate Prevost is a formal manifest heretic, … The Magisterium of the Church has decreed that the elevation of a heretic to the papacy, even if he were elected by all the cardinals, is invalid and null. Catholic Encyclopedia 1914 (Vol. 11, p. 456): “It is very clear that the election [as Pope] of a heretic, schismatic or woman would be null and void.”

"We tend to think that when the Church is talking about morality, that the only issue of morality is sexual. And in reality, I believe there are much greater, more important issues, such as justice, equality, freedom of men and women, freedom of religion, that would all take priority before that particular issue."
On the return flight to Rome today, Pope Leo XIV was asked about the decision of Cardinal Reinhard Marx of Munich, Germany, to enforce "blessings" for homosexual couples in his archdiocese. Leo XIV replied: "First of all, I think it’s very important to understand that the unity or division of the Church should not revolve around sexual matters. We tend to think that when the Church is talking about morality, that the only issue of morality is sexual. And in reality, I believe there are much greater, more important issues, such as justice, equality, freedom of men and women, freedom of religion, that would all take priority before that particular issue. The Holy See has already spoken to the German bishops. The Holy See has made it clear that we do not agree with the formalized blessing of couples, in this case, homosexual couples, as you asked, or couples in irregular situations, beyond what was specifically, if you will, allowed for by Pope Francis in saying all people receive blessings. …More
