Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Secondary School in Guelph will honour Cardinal Thomas Collins this afternoon.
He’ll receive the school’s 2012 National Leadership Award in a ceremony that gets underway at 12:30pm.
The school’s leadership award program began in 1991 and allows students to hear first-hand from passionate and inspirational Canadians.
Collins was born in Guelph and after serving for 5 years as the Archbishop of Toronto, he was made a Cardinal at ceremony at the Vatican in February.

Pope Benedict XVI on Saturday brought 22 new Catholic churchmen into the elite club of cardinals who will elect his successor, in a greatly simplified ceremony that took account of evidence the 84-year-old pontiff is slowing down.
