Description
Quebec's religious heritage is threatened, particularly because of the decline in religious practice, the almost complete lack of succession among religious figures, and the reduction in parish council revenues. Places of worship, as well as rectories, cemeteries and monasteries are sold, reconverted for other purposes and sometimes even destroyed without involving in the decision-making process the local communities attached to these religious properties. In a context where this tendency will gradually increase and where current mechanisms no longer seem to meet the needs, the Committee on Culture of the National Assembly, in an unprecedented approach, took the initiative to find long-term solutions and proposed the implementation of four religious heritage priorities. **********
