The Canadian Interfaith Conversation expresses sadness at the most recent outbreak of violence against Muslims at prayer in Christchurch, New Zealand. We offer our prayers and sympathy to those mourning the loss of loved ones in the shootings. We pledge ongoing support to all faith communities around the world that experience persecution in the name of another faith.

On April 28-30, 2019, the Canadian Interfaith Conversation is sponsoring the fourth conference called Our Whole Society, which aims to foster a new dialogue about the changing role of religion in a pluralistic Canadian society. OWS has previously been held in Montreal (2013), Vancouver (2015), and Ottawa (2017), and is now taking place in Toronto at The University of St.

The One Love Gala was inspired by Bob Marley’s song One Love. The gala serves as a keystone for the multipath chaplaincy community to collaborate and go beyond simply advocating for the continuation of the crucial services in Canadian prisons. It is a further opportunity to celebrate chaplaincy and rehabilitated former-inmates. The One Love Gala operates on the premise that we can only learn to love if we are prepared to forgive and be forgiven.
