Two former members of Parliament - a Liberal and a Conservative yet to be named - will join a new standing committee on government relations, CCCB General Secretary Msgr. Mario Paquette said in an interview.

The CCCB president will chair this high-powered committee that includes Montreal Cardinal-Archbishop Jean-Claude Turcotte and Toronto Archbishop Thomas Collins.
