Ralph Rowe, an Anglican priest and Scouts Canada leader who was
convicted of sexually abusing nearly 60 First Nations
boys in remote communities over almost two
decades, is probably Canada's worst pedophile, says
lawyer Elizabeth Grace.
And yet, the "compelling and tragic" story of the harm
caused by Ralph Rowe has received little attention compared to
high-profile stories about other pedophiles such as Gordon
Stuckless who preyed on boys interested in hockey, says Grace, a

representing victims of historical sexual abuse. Grace has
represented many of Rowe's victims in court actions over the
past decade.
