The “Catholic News Agency” portal (November 27, 2025) reports on antipope Leo XIV’s appointment of two new “archbishops” for Canadian dioceses. Bishop Stephen Hero is transferred from Prince Albert to Edmonton, while Father Susai Jesu (OMI) becomes “archbishop” of Keewatin-Le Pas. Hero’s installation is scheduled for January 2026 at St. Joseph’s “Basilica,” with Jesu’s “episcopal ordination” planned in Manitoba. Both men express gratitude for their appointments, with Hero referencing Psalm 86:10 (“Deus Solus”) as his motto and Jesu quoting the Magnificat. The article highlights Hero’s formation at the compromised Seminary of Christ the King in Mission, BC, and Jesu’s work with indigenous communities through the conciliar sect’s structures.
Canonical Nullity of Conciliar “Appointments”
These appointments carry no ecclesial validity as they originate from a false magisterium. Canon 147 of the 1917 Code states: “An ecclesiastical office cannot be validly obtained without canonical appointment.” Since the conciliar sect lacks authority, Hero and Jesu become mere administrators of bankrupt religious corporations. Pius XII’s Vacantis Apostolicae Sedis (1945) confirms that during sede vacante – now lasting over six decades – no substantive hierarchical changes may occur. The article’s celebration of these transfers reveals the sect’s obsession with bureaucratic continuity rather than supernatural reality.
Hero said he was “humbled and grateful for the trust placed in me to take up this new mission in the Church”
This fraudulent appeal to ecclesial authority ignores St. Robert Bellarmine’s teaching in De Romano Pontifice: “A manifest heretic automatically loses all jurisdiction.” These appointments perpetuate the conciliar sect’s simulation of apostolic succession while denying the immutable Faith. The reference to St. Joseph’s “Basilica” compounds the scandal – a desecrated Novus Ordo meeting hall masquerading as Catholic sanctuary.
Modernist Formation of Conciliar Operatives
Hero’s formation history exposes the corruption permeating the sect’s institutions:
- Seminary of Christ the King: Established in 1931 but corrupted post-Vatican II, now producing clergy indoctrinated in liturgical abuse
- Pontifical University of St. Thomas Aquinas: Hotbed of neo-modernism since the 1960s “reforms”
- Sant’Anselmo: Bastion of liturgical modernism responsible for the Novus Ordo destruction
Hero’s specialization in “liturgical theology” signals immersion in Annibale Bugnini’s revolution against Catholic worship. Pius XII’s Mediator Dei (1947) condemns such innovation: “The liturgy is something absolutely untouchable and inviolable. What the Church has once established, no one may change.” The article’s silence on Hero’s adherence to traditional liturgy speaks volumes about his theological alignment.
Syncretism Masquerading as “Indigenous Ministry”
Jesu’s appointment reveals the conciliar sect’s embrace of pagan syncretism:
Jesu “minister[ed] at Lac Ste. Anne, Enoch, Alexis Reserve, Paul Band First Nation, and Alexander First Nation”
This “ministry” constitutes spiritual treason against Catholic missionary tradition. Contrast this with the heroic Oblates of Mary Immaculate like Blessed Vital Grandin, who converted indigenous peoples through uncompromising doctrinal preaching. The 1917 Code’s Canon 1350 mandates: “In converting infidels, missionaries must teach them to reject all superstitious worship of false gods.” Instead, Jesu’s work represents the conciliar sect’s capitulation to cultural relativism condemned in Pius IX’s Syllabus of Errors (Proposition 16).
Sacramental Invalidity and Dangerous “Communion”
The article’s omission of any warning about sacramental validity constitutes spiritual negligence. Pius XII’s Sacramentum Ordinis (1947) established the essential rite for priestly ordination, yet post-1968 “ordinations” lack proper form and intention. St. Alphonsus Liguori teaches: “No bishop can validly confer orders without the proper intention of doing what the Church does.” Faithful Catholics must recognize:
- All “sacraments” administered by conciliar sect clergy are doubtful at best
- Receiving “communion” from these pseudo-clerics risks sacrilege
- Attendance at Novus Ordo ceremonies violates the First Commandment
Heraldic Blasphemies and Empty Symbolism
Hero’s coat of arms exemplifies the sect’s empty aestheticism:
“A black field signifies the finiteness of creation; a gold saltire cross marks Christ’s saving death… turtledoves evoke St. Joseph and his Temple offering”
This modernist heraldry reduces sacred symbols to personal decoration. Compare with Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre’s coat of arms bearing the motto Christus vincit, Christus regnat, Christus imperat – an actual profession of faith. The twelve stars allegedly representing Our Lady cannot mask the absence of Reginalis Apostolicae Sedis jurisdiction. Pius XI’s Quas Primas reminds us: “When once men recognize, both in private and in public life, that Christ is King, society will at last receive the great blessings of real liberty, well-ordered discipline, peace and harmony.”
The conciliar sect’s Canadian expansion constitutes not ecclesial growth but metastatic spread of doctrinal corruption. As true Catholics preserve the Faith outside these counterfeit structures, we heed St. Paul’s warning: “Bear not the yoke with unbelievers. For what fellowship hath light with darkness?” (2 Cor 6:14).
