Albert LeBlanc’s trial on 50 sex-related charges is set to begin today in Yarmouth.
The 82-year-old former Roman Catholic priest is accused of abusing several boys in the 1970s and 80s.
LeBlanc was a priest in the Yarmouth diocese from 1955 to 1973, when he resigned and left the priesthood, a spokeswoman for the Archdiocese of Halifax said last year.
LeBlanc subsequently worked as a probation officer.
