Who is Barry Clarke?

Barry Bryan Clarke is the 11th Anglican Bishop of Montreal, a post he has held since 2004.

He was educated at McGill University and Montreal Theological College. Upon ordination he became curate at St Matthias, Montreal. His career then progressed steadily upwards through incumbencies at St-Bruno, Quebec, St Michael and All Angels, Montreal and St Paul's Lachine before the bishopric of Montreal. Self-described as a committed youth and community worker, in his ordination speech he appropriated Jesus' claim to "come not to be served, but to serve." He is a supporter of the blessing of same-sex unions.
