FORMING FAITHFUL CONSCIENCES
THE CANADIAN ELECTION
Two documents are: one written to guide Canadians during the 2015 Federal Election by the Canadian and one written by the Catholic Bishops of the United States on how to approach various issues as a Catholic and how we should form our consciences to be FAITHFUL CITIZENS AS WE VOTE.
Some of the United States' Bishops is uniquely American but most of it applies to our election as well. I would encourage everyone to take a close read of each of these documents before voting so that your decision/conscience forming will be most in line with our Catholic Faith as informed citizens.
