The Honorable Pepita Capriolo is a retired judge of the Quebec Superior Court. She was hired by the Archdiocese of Montreal in December 2019 to investigate “who knew what when” following the conviction of former priest Brian Boucher for abuse of minors. Her report was presented to the public on November 25, 2020, and included many recommendations, including regarding the management of church archives. In this webinar, Hon. Capriolo and Bishop Dowd will explain the key problems that were identified in her investigation regarding the retention and storage of files and documents. They will also explain what they see as the root causes of these problems. Finally, they will review recommendations on how to do better for the future.
