The Father-Menard Foundation has 40 years of existence. It saw its beginnings in Juin 1970 when Father Menard wanted a pied-à-terre in Canada, since the majority of benefactors who supported the works of the Missionaries of the Holy Apostles were principally canadian.

 
To commemorate this event a High Mass will be celebrated at 10h30 at Marie-Reine-du-Monde cathedral by the Missionaries of the Holy Apostles, followed by a festive lunch at noon at the Queen Elizabeth Hotel in Montreal.
