Vincent Foy
Vincent N. Foy (August 14, 1915 – March 13, 2017) was a Canadian Roman Catholic cleric and theologian.
He consistently wrote and taught on the intrinsic evil of artificial contraception, and strongly upheld Pope Paul VI's encyclical Humanae vitae when the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops issued the Winnipeg Statement.
He was the head of Toronto's archdiocesan marriage tribunal. Foy died in March 2017 at the age of 101.[1]
