Grand Priory Council

The Grand Priory is led by the Grand Prior of Canada, who is assisted in decision-making and in follow-up and supervision of all Grand Priory matters by a Grand Priory Council. The members of the Grand Priory Council are the Priors, Commanders and Preceptors of the Priories and other operational units of the Grand Priory of Canada, plus additional members fulfilling what are essentially specialist staff functions. To keep the organization efficient and easy to administer, the same structure exists at Priory level, meaning that specialized matters not requiring the Grand Prior’s or a Prior’s intervention can be dealt with on a rapid and routine basis.
