North Vancouver churchgoers say they were stunned to learn their priest is facing five historic sex assault charges against children in Edmonton.
“It’s horribly shocking,” said Evan Jennings, who attends St. Catherine’s Capilano Anglican Church. “It’s awful. The poor guy…poor all the people, I guess.
Father Gordon William Dominey, 63, allegedly sexually assaulted five youth while he was employed at now-closed Edmonton Youth Development Centre from 1985 to 1989. He was working at the time as a priest in the Diocese of Edmonton.

Police say the victims were between 14 and 17 years old.
