Enjoying a vicarious trip through Quebec. Your observations about the church situation is fodder for thought. I'm no expert either, but I remember reading that the Catholic church in Quebec did not have to deal with the French Revolution. This made it more conservative and less able to respond to the modern world. This was in a book called The St. Lawrence by Henry Beston. You might find it interesting to read because it travels through the area you are visiting 80 years ago.
