The B.C. Catholic has another story about Cardinal Collins and the enthusiasm he has about the seminary formation program in Toronto. The
Western Catholic Reporter dishes the details:
Cardinal Thomas Collins is excited about his new program for men about to enter Toronto’s St. Augustine Seminary.
He calls it “a spiritual year” in which prospective priests go through a series of retreats, read the Bible cover to cover, work with the poor and are immersed in different forms of Catholic culture, such as music and art.
Then there is the “media fast.” No email, no newspapers or magazines, no Internet, Ipads, television or other “potentially addictive media.”

The B.C. Catholic website.
