I suppose this is a good thing but sad that we live in a world where this is necessary.

A Catholic church has confirmed it will start digitally fingerprinting priests and volunteers who work with children in a bid to protect minors from abuse.

The screening process is being implemented by the Catholic Church of Montreal and will see 10 churches take part in the process that requires those in "high risk" roles to provide digital fingerprints and police background checks.7A688D88-8D2C-49F6-9002-75AEBB9AA0D8-1277-000001D22D9AA912.jpeg
