Description
December 4 Toronto "A Pastoral Letter of Concern from Archbishop Pocock" concerning "the rapid growth of pornography in the society around us," was read in all Roman Catholic churches in Toronto and appeared in church newspapers. This was seen by some in the gay community as part of a coordinated censorship crackdown involving a variety of governmental agencies, particularly the office of Ontario's Attorney General, Roy McMurtry, and the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) and Metropolitan Toronto Police forces.
