Diocese of Huron – Media Release

London, Ontario, October 13, 2022 – The Diocese of Huron fully supports the inquiry into new allegations brought in a Yukon court against former Anglican priest David Norton. We trust that the court proceedings will reveal the full truth about his actions.

David Norton is already serving his prison sentence for the crimes against minors he committed in the Diocese of Huron. Many have been hurt by his abuse of power that goes against the very essence of our faith. We continue to hold them in our prayers hoping that they will find strength to overcome the enormous pain they feel. The entire Huron community is willing to be a part of that healing process as all our members feel deeply betrayed by Mr. Norton’s actions.

David Norton relinquished his exercise of ministry as an Anglican priest in 2016.
