I had just graduated from university when I was approached and asked to help rebuild the Catholic Civil Rights League. I was given a box of dusty files and asked to build an organization, and that's what I did. I basically started communicating with other Catholics across the country and put together a newsletter, a membership campaign, an advertising campaign, with pamphlets, brochures, and that sort of thing. Then I began working on how to communicate the message to members of Parliament and into the wider community. The idea of the Catholic Civil Rights League is to bring the Catholic position to bear on issues of public debate.
