One day I was driving a fair distance to a York Regional Forest Trail to walk my dog and realized I had forgotten my phone, so my only other option besides silence was to listen to AM talk radio. I tuned into a talk show about Vache Canadienne (Canadienne Cattle) and their guest...
Note: This piece was originally published by Indian Catholic Matters on February 4th, 2026. For many Catholics, the word “post-modernism” triggers unease. It signals moral confusion, distrust of institutions, and a culture where truth feels negotiable. Today, the Church no longer occupies the social center she once did. Her voice now competes with influencers,...

In his previous video, Pedro Gabriel discussed Rome’s recent proposal to the Society of Saint Pius X (SSPX) and what it might mean for their path toward full communion with the Catholic Church. Now, the SSPX has officially responded: rejecting the Vatican’s offer while presenting a counterproposal of their own. In this video,...
In this episode, I had a wonderful discussion with Dr. Julia Sadusky about the importance, difficulties, and challenges of talking with your kids about sex. More specifically, we talked about the harm caused by sexual shame, how to avoid passing shame onto our kids, and how to talk about sexuality in a way...
For these reasons, Our address is addressed especially to you who also believe you are in communion with the Catholic Church, but who, fraudulently deceived by the authors of the nefarious schism. . . refuse communion with Us and with the Holy Roman Church. To you, therefore, We now address words of peace;...
Note: This article was first featured by Indian Catholic Matters on July 15, 2025. Sudan and South Sudan have both suffered enormously due to brutal conflicts that have left deep scars on their people and societies.

And the Church’s own...

It fed off the same anxieties, fears, and prejudices as,...
Update: The SSPX has formally declined the offer of dialogue. Last Wednesday, I published a backgrounder on the Society of St. Pius X (SSPX), in which I attempted to lay out why the SSPX’s planned consecration of new bishops this July is effectively a schism in all but name. Within 24 hours, events moved...
With dust-like ashes crossed upon our foreheads, each one of us is firmly presented with Ash Wednesday’s wake-up call that our mortal body, this earthly life, is passing away — sooner than we realize — and that you and I would be wise to diligently prepare for eternity by getting our lives in...
This is a homily that was given by Deacon Steve O’Neill for the 6th Sunday in Ordinary time. We are sharing it tonight due to its focus on sin and our call to righteousness. This past Sunday’s reading from Matthew is surely one of the longer Gospel readings we hear in Ordinary Time,...
