<br />Additionally to your very good points, we USA & Canada + there is accumulating evidence that we are increasingly dealing with a sochio/militant philosophy that is outspokenly Anti-Judeo/Christian and blatantly God hating atheists thus prompting these outbreaks among the social dysfunctional psychopaths who are rapidly breeding more hate and dysfunction

<br /> It is encouraging to know that Father Grou is in stable condition. I would think that with 77 years of life he has encountered dangerous situations before. Working with the homeless and disadvantaged.

Priest stabbed during livestream of morning mass in Canada's largest church

Roberto Machado Noa Saint Joseph Oratory Basilica church in Montreal. Building A 26-year-old man has been arrested after a priest in Montreal was stabbed on Friday during a livestreamed morning mass in Canada's largest church.

Father Claude Grou, 77, the rector of the Saint Joseph's Oratory, was taken to the hospital and is said to be stable condition, according to the Archdiocese of Montreal.

Authorities responded to call around 8:40 a.m. and witnesses said a man went toward the priest with a sharp object during the daily mass where 50 people were in attendance.

The attack was captured on a livestream and television broadcast by the Catholic channel Salt + Light, which publishes the streams shortly after the mass. Authorities have not disclosed whether the footage will be released.

When police arrived the suspect was already detained by church security and the priest was slightly injured on his upper body, Montreal police spokesperson Caroline Ch vrefils said.

The suspect was then taken into custody, transported to a detention center and will be interviewed by investigators later today, she said.

What a horrible and inexcusable gesture that has no place in Montreal. Montreal's mayor Val rie Plante tweeted.

Grou was not afraid for his life, tweeted Jasmin Lemieux-Lefebvre, director of communications for the Catholic Church of Quebec.

Saint Joseph's is in Montreal's Mount Royal district and is Canada's biggest church after it was officially opened in 1956. It is said to be one of the country's most popular tourist spots, with 2 million visitors per year.
