Canada’s synthesis reports were prepared by each of  their four Regional Episcopal Assemblies – Western, Ontario, Quebec and Atlantic regions. These four regional reports were then received by the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops (CCCB) and used to draft a national synthesis, which was been submitted to the General Secretariat of the Synod of the Holy See on August 15, 2022.
