Bishop Ingham withheld his consent, saying he wanted to consult the other Canadian bishops as well as raise the issue at the upcoming Lambeth Conference. What happens after that is unknown. A group of advisers from the diocese and two bishops has been established to counsel Bishop Ingham on next steps. In fact, given that he withheld his consent at the synod, it isn't at all clear that he can change his mind and give his consent at a later date. There has undoubtedly been a shift in political power as a result of this synod.

For an institution whose unofficial motto is via media , the middle way, finding the heart of the matter seems an appropriate challenge for everyone.
