It is with great excitement to announce to you the first Coptic Orthodox Monastery in Canada! St. Anthony’s Coptic Monastery will be located in Eastern Ontario in the city of Perth. H.H. Pope Tawadros II has blessed the purchase of 250 acres of land which includes ready-to-use building on the premises of the monastery.

Canadian Foreign Minister John Baird said in a press conference that Canada disagrees with France, Germany, England and America that support ousted president Mohamed Morsy who converted a democratic regime into an autocratic one and showed no respect for the judicial system.
