27-Jun-06. Calgary bishop puts cards on the table. Edmonton Sun, 18.

Bishop Fred Henry says he may bar priests from Catholic schools that continue to defy his demand to stop using gambling revenue to fund classrooms. Henry had previously said he will not preside over the Calgary Catholic School District’s opening mass because of the board’s decision to continue bingo and casino fundraising activities, which generate roughly $2-million per year.
